Isocaryophyllene, also known as gamma-caryophyllene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Isocaryophyllene can be found primarily in saliva. Isocaryophyllene is found in allspice, and is widespread in plants (Jasminum, Origanum, and Pimpinella species). Beta-caryophyllene is a pale yellow oily liquid with an odor midway between odor of cloves and turpentine. (NTP, 1992) Isocaryophyllene is a sesquiterpenoid. Isocaryophyllene is a natural product found in Aloysia gratissima, Vismia cayennensis, and other organisms with data available. See also: Caryophyllene (related).
