Polygodial
Polygodial is an aldehyde. Polygodial is a natural product found in Zygogynum pancheri, Zygogynum acsmithii, and other organisms with data available. D000890 - Anti-Infective Agents > D000935 - Antifungal Agents Polygodial (Poligodial) is an antifungal potentiator[1]. Polygodial is a sesquiterpene with anti-hyperalgesic properties[2].
Tricosane
N-tricosane, also known as ch3-[ch2]21-ch3, is a member of the class of compounds known as alkanes. Alkanes are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2 , and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Thus, N-tricosane is considered to be a hydrocarbon lipid molecule. N-tricosane is an alkane and waxy tasting compound and can be found in a number of food items such as kohlrabi, papaya, coconut, and ginkgo nuts, which makes N-tricosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. N-tricosane can be found primarily in saliva. The term higher alkanes is sometimes used literally as "alkanes with a higher number of carbon atoms". One definition distinguishes the higher alkanes as the n-alkanes that are solid under natural conditions . Tricosane belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyclic alkanes. These are acyclic hydrocarbons consisting only of n carbon atoms and m hydrogen atoms where m=2*n + 2.
Gurjunene-alpha
Alpha-Gurjunene or (-)-Alpha-Gurjunene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 5,10-cycloaromadendrane sesquiterpenoids. These are aromadendrane sesquiterpenoids that arise from the C5-C10 cyclization of the aromadendrane skeleton. It is formally classified as a polycyclic hydrocarbon although it is biochemically a sesquiterpenoid as it synthesized via isoprene units. Sesquiterpenes are terpenes that contain 15 carbon atoms and are comprised of three isoprene units. The biosynthesis of sesquiterpenes is known to occur mainly through the mevalonic acid pathway (MVA), in the cytosol. However, recent studies have found evidence of pathway crosstalk with the methyl-erythritol-phosphate (MEP) pathway in the cytosol. Farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of cyclic sesquiterpenes. FPP undergoes several cyclization reactions to yield a diverse number of cyclic arrangements. Alpha-Gurjunene is a neutral, hydrophobic molecule that is insoluble in water. It exists as a colorless clear Liquid and has a woody, balsamic odor. It is used as a perfuming agent. Alpha-gurjunene is found in many plants, essential oils and foods including allspice, bay leaf, carrot seeds, eucalyptus, guava, parsley, black papper, sage and tea tree oil.
Pentacosane
Constituent of many naturally occurring waxes. A colorless solid at ambient conditions. Pentacosane is an alkane consisting of an unbranched chain of 25 carbon atoms. It has a role as a semiochemical and a plant metabolite. Pentacosane is a natural product found in Cryptotermes brevis, Erucaria microcarpa, and other organisms with data available. See also: Moringa oleifera leaf oil (part of). An alkane consisting of an unbranched chain of 25 carbon atoms. Pentacosane is one of the major components in the acetone extract from Curcuma raktakanda and is also in the essential oil from the leaves of Malus domestica. Pentacosane exhibit anti-cancer activities[1].

1-Epi-alpha-gurjunene
1-Epi-alpha-gurjunene is a constituent of Tolu balsam (Myroxylon balsamum var. balsamum). 1-Epi-alpha-gurjunene is a food flavouring. Constituent of Tolu balsam (Myroxylon balsamum variety balsamum). Food flavouring
N-Pentacosane
Pentacosane, also known as ch3-[ch2]23-ch3, is a member of the class of compounds known as alkanes. Alkanes are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2 , and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Thus, pentacosane is considered to be a hydrocarbon lipid molecule. Pentacosane can be found in a number of food items such as ginkgo nuts, papaya, black elderberry, and cardamom, which makes pentacosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. The term higher alkanes is sometimes used literally as "alkanes with a higher number of carbon atoms". One definition distinguishes the higher alkanes as the n-alkanes that are solid under natural conditions . n-Pentacosane, also known as CH3-[CH2]23-CH3, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2, and consist entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. n-pentacosane is a hydrocarbon lipid molecule that is very hydrophobic, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. n-Pentacosane has been detected in coconuts, avocado, ginkgo nuts, cardamoms, and lindens. This could make n-pentacosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Pentacosane is one of the major components in the acetone extract from Curcuma raktakanda and is also in the essential oil from the leaves of Malus domestica. Pentacosane exhibit anti-cancer activities[1].

Hepanal
alpha-gurjunene
1-epi-alpha-gurjunene is a member of the class of compounds known as 5,10-cycloaromadendrane sesquiterpenoids. 5,10-cycloaromadendrane sesquiterpenoids are aromadendrane sesquiterpenoids that arise from the C5-C10 cyclization of the aromadendrane skeleton. Within the cell, 1-epi-alpha-gurjunene is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP). It can also be found in the extracellular space.
