Metabolite Identification
Common NameIsopentyl mercaptan
DescriptionIsopentyl mercaptan belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkylthiols. These are organic compounds containing the thiol functional group linked to an alkyl chain. Isopentyl mercaptan is a glue and onion tasting compound. Isopentyl mercaptan has been detected, but not quantified in, alcoholic beverages. This could make isopentyl mercaptan a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Isopentyl mercaptan.
