Definition
(+)-7-iso-jasmonate is a member of the class of compounds known as jasmonic acids. Jasmonic acids are lipids containing or derived from a jasmonic acid, with a structure characterized by the presence of an alkene chain linked to a 2-(3-oxocyclopentyl)acetic acid moiety (+)-7-iso-jasmonate is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (+)-7-iso-jasmonate can be found in a number of food items such as conch, swede, yardlong bean, and cauliflower, which makes (+)-7-iso-jasmonate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as jasmonic acids. These are lipids containing or derived from a jasmonic acid, with a structure characterized by the presence of an alkene chain linked to a 2-(3-oxocyclopentyl)acetic acid moiety.
