Metabolite Identification
Common Name4-Hydroxynonenal
Description4-Hydroxynonenal, also known as HNE, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohols. These are aliphatic alcohols consisting of a chain of a least six carbon atoms. Thus, 4-hydroxynonenal is considered to be a fatty aldehyde lipid molecule. 4-Hydroxynonenal is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. 4-Hydroxynonenal is a potentially toxic compound.
