Lariciresinol
Lariciresinol is a lignan, i.e., a type of phenylpropanoids. Enterolactone and Lariciresinol are lignans and tetrahydrofurans.
See Enterolactone and Lariciresinol
Lignan
The lignans are a large group of low molecular weight polyphenols found in plants, particularly seeds, whole grains, and vegetables. Enterolactone and lignan are lignans.
Matairesinol
Matairesinol is an organic compound. Enterolactone and Matairesinol are Lactones, lignans and tetrahydrofurans.
See Enterolactone and Matairesinol
Organic compound
Some chemical authorities define an organic compound as a chemical compound that contains a carbon–hydrogen or carbon–carbon bond; others consider an organic compound to be any chemical compound that contains carbon.
