Perillic acid
Perillic acid, also known as perillate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as menthane monoterpenoids. These are monoterpenoids with a structure based on the o-, m-, or p-menthane backbone. P-menthane consists of the cyclohexane ring with a methyl group and a (2-methyl)-propyl group at the 1 and 4 ring position, respectively. The o- and m- menthanes are much rarer, and presumably arise by alkyl migration of p-menthanes. Perillic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Perillic acid is an intermediate in the Limonene and pinene degradation pathway. (KEGG); Its measurement in urine is used to monitor cancer patients receiving oral Limonene (a farnesyl transferase inhibitor that has shown antitumor properties)(PubMed ID 8723738 ). Perillic acid is found in cardamom. C471 - Enzyme Inhibitor > C2020 - Farnesyl Transferase Inhibitor
