Description (e)-piperolein a is a member of the class of compounds known as benzodioxoles. Benzodioxoles are organic compounds containing a benzene ring fused to either isomers of dioxole. Dioxole is a five-membered unsaturated ring of two oxygen atoms and three carbon atoms (e)-piperolein a is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). (e)-piperolein a can be found in herbs and spices, which makes (e)-piperolein a a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
