Metabolite Identification
Common NameMethylhippuric acid
DescriptionMethyl hippurate, also known as methylhippic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as n-acyl-alpha amino acids and derivatives. N-acyl-alpha amino acids and derivatives are compounds containing an alpha amino acid (or a derivative thereof) which bears an acyl group at its terminal nitrogen atom. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Methyl hippurate.
