dehydroascorbate (bicyclic form)
Definition
Dehydroascorbate (bicyclic form) is a member of the class of compounds known as isosorbides. Isosorbides are organic polycyclic compounds containing an isosorbide(1,4-Dianhydrosorbitol) moiety, which consists of two -oxolan-3-ol rings. Dehydroascorbate (bicyclic form) is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Dehydroascorbate (bicyclic form) can be found in a number of food items such as white lupine, grass pea, broccoli, and endive, which makes dehydroascorbate (bicyclic form) a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as isosorbides. These are organic polycyclic compounds containing an isosorbide(1,4-Dianhydrosorbitol) moiety, which consists of two -oxolan-3-ol rings.
