Trans-2-pentenol is a member of the class of compounds known as primary alcohols. Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). Trans-2-pentenol is soluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Trans-2-pentenol can be found in a number of food items such as mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine), green zucchini, garlic, and abiyuch, which makes trans-2-pentenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
