Common NameTrimethylpyrazine
DescriptionTrimethylpyrazine, also known as fema 3244, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyrazines. Pyrazines are compounds containing a pyrazine ring, which is a six-member aromatic heterocycle, that consists of two nitrogen atoms (at positions 1 and 4) and four carbon atoms. Trimethylpyrazine is a cocoa, earthy, and hazelnut tasting compound. trimethylpyrazine is found, on average, in the highest concentration in kohlrabis. trimethylpyrazine has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as green vegetables, pepper (c. annuum), orange bell peppers, potato, and red bell peppers. This could make trimethylpyrazine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Found in many foodstuffs e.g. asparagus, baked potato, wheat bread, Swiss cheese, coffee, black tea, roasted filbert and peanut, and soybean.
