Definition
Neopinone is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Neopinone can be found in a number of food items such as root vegetables, fig, green bean, and cucurbita (gourd), which makes neopinone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenanthrenes and derivatives. These are polycyclic compounds containing a phenanthrene moiety, which is a tricyclic aromatic compound with three non-linearly fused benzene.
