Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name6-methyl-2-acetyl-pyridine
Description2-Acetyl-6-methylpyridine, also known as 6-acetyl-2-picoline, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aryl alkyl ketones. These are ketones have the generic structure RC(=O)R', where R = aryl group and R'=alkyl group. 2-Acetyl-6-methylpyridine is a strong basic compound that is soluble in water. It has a sulfurous, potato, chocolate flavor ( Ref:DOI ). 2-acetyl-6-methylpyridine has been detected in alcoholic beverages (rum) and coffee and coffee products. This could make 2-acetyl-6-methylpyridine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 2-Acetyl-6-methylpyridine is also a constituent of cannabis smoke. 2-Acetyl-6-methylpyridine is formed during the combustion of cannabis ( Ref:DOI ).
