4-Caffeoyl-1,5-quinide (4-caffeoylquinic-1,5-lactone or 4-CQL) is found in roasted coffee beans. It is formed by lactonization of 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid during the roasting process.[1]

Lactonization of 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid during roasting to form of 4-CQL

It is reported to possess opioid antagonist properties in mice.[2]
