Definition
Gibberellin a12-aldehyde is a member of the class of compounds known as c20-gibberellins. C20-gibberellins are gibberellins with carboxy groups in positions 7 and 18 and some also in 20, while others have an aldehyde group in the latter position. Gibberellin a12-aldehyde is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Gibberellin a12-aldehyde can be found in a number of food items such as custard apple, yellow bell pepper, giant butterbur, and java plum, which makes gibberellin a12-aldehyde a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as c20-gibberellins. These are gibberellins with carboxy groups in positions 7 and 18 and some also in 20, while others have an aldehyde group in the latter position.
