delta-Cadinol
Delta-cadinol, also known as delta-cadinol, is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Delta-cadinol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Delta-cadinol is a herbal tasting compound and can be found in a number of food items such as cloves, parsley, lemon balm, and common sage, which makes delta-cadinol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Delta-cadinol, also known as δ-cadinol, is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Delta-cadinol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Delta-cadinol is a herbal tasting compound and can be found in a number of food items such as cloves, parsley, lemon balm, and common sage, which makes delta-cadinol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
T-Muurolol
T-muurolol, also known as 10-epi-alpha-muurolol or alpha-epi-muurolol, is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. T-muurolol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). T-muurolol is a herbal, spicy, and weak spice tasting compound found in allspice, lemon balm, and white mustard, which makes T-muurolol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Hinokinin
Hinokinin is a lignan that is dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one (gamma-butyrolactone) substituted by a 3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl group at positions 3 and 4 (the 3R,4R-diastereoisomer). It has a role as a trypanocidal drug. It is a lignan, a gamma-lactone and a member of benzodioxoles. Hinokinin is a natural product found in Piper nigrum, Chamaecyparis obtusa, and other organisms with data available. A lignan that is dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one (gamma-butyrolactone) substituted by a 3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl group at positions 3 and 4 (the 3R,4R-diastereoisomer). Hinokinin (Compound 1) is a compound isolated from the stems of Hypoestes aristate. Hinokinin exhibits moderate activity of HIV-1 protease enzyme[1].
