122-48-5COc1cc(CCC(C)=O)ccc1OOJYLAHXKWMRDGS-UHFFFAOYSA-NZingerone is a methyl ketone that is 4-phenylbutan-2-one in which the phenyl ring is substituted at positions 3 and 4 by methoxy and hydroxy groups respectively. The major pungent component in ginger. It has a role as an antioxidant, a flavouring agent, a fragrance, an antiemetic, a radiation protective agent, an anti-inflammatory agent and a plant metabolite. It is a monomethoxybenzene, a member of phenols and a methyl ketone.
