Metabolite Identification
Common NameNonanal
DescriptionNonanal, also known as nonyl aldehyde or pelargonaldehyde, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain aldehydes. These are an aldehyde with a chain length containing between 6 and 12 carbon atoms. Thus, nonanal is considered to be a fatty aldehyde lipid molecule. Nonanal exists as a liquid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. Nonanal exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Nonanal is a potentially toxic compound. Nonanal has been found to be associated with several diseases known as autism, crohn's disease, pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified, and uremia; also nonanal has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including celiac disease.
