Baikiain is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H9NO2. Chemically, it is classified as a tetrahydropyridine substituted with a carboxylic acid. Because it contains both this carboxylic acid and an adjacent amine group, it is also an alpha-amino acid.[1] Baikiain is one of the two enantiomers of the chiral compound 4,5-didehydropipecolic acid.
Sources
Baikiain has been found in diverse natural sources including dates,[1] African teak (Baikiaea plurijuga) wood,[2] and the red algae Serraticardia maxima.[3]
Several laboratory syntheses of baikiain and its racemic form have been reported.[4][5][6][7]
Effects
Baikiain is hypothesized to be the causative agent of illnesses resulting from consumption of food products containing tara flour.[8]
