The major in vivo metabolites of (S)-(-)-pulegone in humans using a metabolism of ingestion-correlated amounts (MICA) experiment were newly identified as 2-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-5methylcyclohexanone (8-hydroxymenthone, M1), 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)cyclohexanone (1-hydroxymenthone, M2), 3-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)cyclohexanol (menthol), and E-2-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethylidene)-5-methylcyclohexanone (10-hydroxypulegone, M4) on the basis of mass spectrometric analysis in combination with syntheses and NMR experiments. Minor metabolites were be identified as 3-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-2-cyclohexenone (piperitone, M5) and alpha,alpha,4-trimethyl-1-cyclohexene-1-methanol (3-p-menthen-8-ol, M6). Menthofuran was not a major metabolite of pulegone and is most probably an artifact formed during workup from known (M4) and/or unknown precursors. The differences in toxicity between (S)-(-)- and (R)-(+)-pulegone can be explained by the strongly diminished ability for enzymatic reduction of the double bond in (R)-(+)-pulegone. This might lead to further oxidative metabolism of 10-hydroxypulegone (M4) and the formation of further currently undetected metabolites that might account for the observed hepatotoxic and pneumotoxic activity in humans.
