Common NameFurfuryl alcohol
Description2-Furanmethanol, also known as 2-furylcarbinol or furfural alcohol or FEMA 2491, is a furan bearing a hydroxymethyl substituent at the 2-position. It belongs to the class of organic compounds known as heteroaromatic compounds. Heteroaromatic compounds are compounds containing an aromatic ring where a carbon atom is linked to a hetero atom. 2-Furanmethanol is an essentially neutral compound. It is a yellow clear liquid that is soluble in water and alcohol. 2-Furanmethanol has sulfurous, estery, chemical, musty, sweet, brown, caramelly, bready and coffee odor and a burnt, sweet, caramelly, brown flavor ( Ref:DOI ).  2-Furanmethanol has been detected in rice cakes, cereals and cereal products, bread, potato, white mustards, arabica coffee, coffee bean, roasted coffee, tea leaf, potato chips, sesame seeds, clove bud, clove fruit, beer, and cocoa and cocoa products. This could make 2-furanmethanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. It is also found in lavender oil from Spain (1.264%) and in trace amounts in ketaki flower oil from India ( Ref:DOI ). 2-Furfuryl alcohol is a constituent of marijuana smoke ( Ref:DOI ). 2-Furanmethanol is formed during the combustion of cannabis.
