alpha-Farnesene
alpha-Farnesene belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. These are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. (3E,6E)-alpha-Farnesene, also known as trans-alpha-Farnesene, is a sweet, bergamot, and citrus tasting flavouring ingredient. (3E,6E)-alpha-Farnesene is a constituent of the natural coating of apples and pears and other fruit. It has been identified in gingers, cottonseeds, common oregano, sweet oranges, spearmints, guava, pomes, and pears. This could make (3E,6E)-alpha-farnesene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Alpha-farnesene is a farnesene that is 1,3,6,10-tetraene substituted by methyl groups at positions 3, 7 and 11 respectively. alpha-Farnesene is a natural product found in Eupatorium cannabinum, Lonicera japonica, and other organisms with data available. See also: Chamomile (part of); Cannabis sativa subsp. indica top (part of). Constituent of the natural coating of apples and pears and other fruit. Flavouring ingredient. (3E,6E)-alpha-Farnesene is found in many foods, some of which are cottonseed, spearmint, ginger, and fruits.
beta-Bisabolene
S-beta-Bisabolene is found in anise. S-beta-Bisabolene is a constituent of the essential oils of bergamot, lemon and wild carrot
Flavouring ingredient used singly or as mixed isomers. Component of FEMA 3331. See also 2,7,10-Bisabolatriene
alpha-Cadinene
A cadinene sesquiterpene that consists of 1-(propan-2-yl)-1,2,4a,5,6,8a-hexahydronaphthalene having two methyl substituents at positions 1 and 4 (the 1S,4aS,8aS-configuration). A member of the cadinene family of sesquiterpenes having a 4,7-dimethyl-1-(propan-2-yl)-1,2,4a,5,6,8a-hexahydronaphthalene skeleton with 1S,4aR,8aS-stereochemistry. It is isolated from the essential oils of several plant species.
β-Bisabolene
(S)-beta-bisabolene is a beta-bisabolene which has (1S)-configuration. It is an enantiomer of a (R)-beta-bisabolene. beta-Bisabolene is a natural product found in Rattus rattus, Eupatorium cannabinum, and other organisms with data available. A beta-bisabolene which has (1S)-configuration. β-Bisabolene is a?sesquiterpene isolated from?opoponax (Commiphora guidotti). β-Bisabolene, an anti-cancer agent, can be used for the study of breast cancer[1]. β-Bisabolene is a?sesquiterpene isolated from?opoponax (Commiphora guidotti). β-Bisabolene, an anti-cancer agent, can be used for the study of breast cancer[1].
Farnesene
Isol. (without stereochemical distinction) from oil of Cymbopogon nardus (citronella), Cananga odorata (ylang ylang) and others (E)-β-Farnesene (trans-β-Farnesene) is a volatile sesquiterpene hydrocarbon which can be found in Phlomis aurea Decne essential oil. (E)-β-Farnesene can be used as a feeding stimulant for the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis[1][2]. (E)-β-Farnesene (trans-β-Farnesene) is a volatile sesquiterpene hydrocarbon which can be found in Phlomis aurea Decne essential oil. (E)-β-Farnesene can be used as a feeding stimulant for the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis[1][2].
alpha-Amorphene
Alpha-amorphene, also known as alpha-amorphene, is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Alpha-amorphene can be found in a number of food items such as pepper (spice), peppermint, sweet basil, and sweet bay, which makes alpha-amorphene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
