Chemical compound
Chavicine is a possibly pungent compound found in black pepper [ 1] and other species of the genus Piper . It is one of the four geometric isomers of piperine .
In light, especially ultra-violet light, chavicine is formed from its isomer piperine. Its flavor has been reported as flavorless[ 2] [ 3] Chavicine will also re-isomerise back to piperine.[ 4]
