Cadinene
Cadinene is the trivial chemical name of a number of isomeric hydrocarbons that occur in a wide variety of essential oil-producing plants. They all share the cadalane skeleton (4-isopropyl-1,6-dimethyldecahydronaphthalene) and can be further subdivided in: cadinenes, muurolene, amorphenes, and bulgarenes. According to the double bonds positions, they are also subdivided in alpha [e.g. 4,9-Cadinadiene], beta, gamma [e.g. 4,10(15)-Cadinadiene], delta [e.g. 1(10),4-Cadinadiene], epsilon, zeta 1 and zeta 2. Prominent stereo-isomers are: alpha-cadinene (FDB017447), gamma-cadinene (FDB017449), and delta-cadinene (FDB013710). Cadinene is found in many foods, some of which are lemon, sweet marjoram, peppermint, and cottonseed. Cadinene is found in caraway.
