描述
1,2-dibutyrin, also known as alpha,beta-dibutyrine or (2-butanoyloxy-3-hydroxypropyl) butanoate, is a member of the class of compounds known as 1,2-diacylglycerols. 1,2-diacylglycerols are diacylglycerols containing a glycerol acylated at positions 1 and 2. 1,2-dibutyrin is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 1,2-dibutyrin can be found in a number of food items such as swede, french plantain, roman camomile, and millet, which makes 1,2-dibutyrin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
