Abstract: It is known that foods containing a carbohydrate, e.g., starch, in a large amount produce acrylamide upon heating at high temperatures. Some documents state that acrylamide is formed by the Maillard reaction of an amino acid, e.g., asparagine, with a reducing sugar. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel compound which is effective in inhibiting such foods from yielding acrylamide when treated at a high temperature. Specifically, the present invention provides a compound represented by General Formula (I).
