Dehydrofukinone

(4aR,5S)-4a,5-dimethyl-3-(propan-2-ylidene)-2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8-octahydronaphthalen-2-one

C15H22O (218.1671)


Dehydrofukinone is a member of the class of compounds known as eremophilane, 8,9-secoeremophilane and furoeremophilane sesquiterpenoids. Eremophilane, 8,9-secoeremophilane and furoeremophilane sesquiterpenoids are sesquiterpenoids with a structure based either on the eremophilane skeleton, its 8,9-seco derivative, or the furoeremophilane skeleton. Eremophilanes have been shown to be derived from eudesmanes by migration of the methyl group at C-10 to C-5. Dehydrofukinone is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Dehydrofukinone can be found in burdock, which makes dehydrofukinone a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
