Description Dehydrogingerdione is a member of the class of compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. Dehydrogingerdione is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Dehydrogingerdione can be found in ginger, which makes dehydrogingerdione a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
