Chemical Information
Name(+)-lariciresinol
Description(+)-Lariciresinol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 7,9'-epoxylignans. These are lignans that contain the 7,9'-epoxylignan skeleton, which consists of a tetrahydrofuran that carries a phenyl group, a methyl group, and a benzyl group at positons 2, 3 and 4, respectively. (+)-Lariciresinol has been detected in several different foods, such as parsnips, white mustards, narrowleaf cattails, turnips, and common sages. This could make (+)-Lariciresinol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Lariciresinol is also found in sesame seeds, Brassica vegetables, in the bark and wood of white fir (Abies alba).
