描述
5-hydroxy-coniferaldehyde is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 5-hydroxy-coniferaldehyde can be found in a number of food items such as tronchuda cabbage, bitter gourd, swiss chard, and bayberry, which makes 5-hydroxy-coniferaldehyde a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
