alpha-Cedrene

(-)-alpha-cedrene;(1S,2R,5S,7S)-2,6,6,8-tetramethyltricyclo[5.3.1.0(1,5)]undec-8-ene;[3R-(3alpha,3abeta,7beta,8aalpha)]-2,3,4,7,8,8a-hexahydro-3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-1H-3a,7-methanoazulene

C15H24 (204.1878)


Alpha-cedrene, also known as (-)-α-cedrene or beta-cedrene, is a member of the class of compounds known as cedrane and isocedrane sesquiterpenoids. Cedrane and isocedrane sesquiterpenoids are sesquiternoids with a structure based on the cedrane or the isocedrane skeleton. Cedrane is a tricyclic molecules a 3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-1H-3a,7-methano-azulene moiety. Isocedrane is a rearranged cedrane arising from the migration of methyl group moved from the 6-position to the 4-position. Thus, alpha-cedrene is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Alpha-cedrene is a sweet, cedar, and fresh tasting compound and can be found in a number of food items such as tarragon, peppermint, wild celery, and common sage, which makes alpha-cedrene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Alpha-cedrene can be found primarily in urine. alpha-Cedrene alpha-Cedrene is one of the two isomers of cedrene. Cedrene is a sesquiterpene found in the essential oil of cedar. There are two isomers of cedrene, (-)-alpha-cedrene and (+)-beta-cedrene, which differ in the position of a double bond (Wikipedia) (-)-Cedrene (α-cedrene) is a sesquiterpene constituent of cedarwood oils, with anti-leukemic, antimicrobial and anti-obesity activities[1].

C15H24 (204.1878)


Thujopsene is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Thujopsene can be found in lovage, which makes thujopsene a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Thujopsene is found in the essential oil of a variety of conifers, in particular Juniperus cedrus and Thujopsis dolabrata in which it comprises around 2.2\\% of the weight of the heartwood .

Alpha-cedrene can be found primarily in urine. Cedr-8-ene is a sesquiterpene that is cedrane which has a double bond between positions 8 and 9. It has a role as a human urinary metabolite and a volatile oil component. It is a sesquiterpene, a bridged compound, a polycyclic olefin and a carbotricyclic compound. It derives from a hydride of a cedrane. alpha-Cedrene is a natural product found in Aloysia gratissima, Widdringtonia whytei, and other organisms with data available. alpha-Cedrene alpha-Cedrene is one of the two isomers of cedrene.
