Anethole, also known as (e)-anethol or 4-propenylanisole, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as anisoles. These are organic compounds containing a methoxybenzene or a derivative thereof. Anethole is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Anethole is a sweet, anise, and balsam tasting compound. Anethole is found, on average, in the highest concentration in a few different foods, such as anises, star anises, and fennels and in a lower concentration in corianders, sweet marjorams, and wild celeries. Anethole has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as sweet bay, lemon balms, herbs and spices, nutmegs, and cumins. This could make anethole a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
