Definition
Sinapic acid, also known as sinapinate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxycinnamic acids. Hydroxycinnamic acids are compounds containing an cinnamic acid where the benzene ring is hydroxylated. Sinapic acid has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as strawberry guava, purple lavers, common verbena, ryes, and lupines. This could make sinapic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. A sinapic acid in which the double bond has trans-configuration.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxycinnamic acids. Hydroxycinnamic acids are compounds containing an cinnamic acid where the benzene ring is hydroxylated.
