Metabolite Identification
Common NameCurcumol
DescriptionCurcumol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as guaianes. These are sesquiterpenoids with a structure based on the guaiane skeleton. Guaiane is a bicyclic compound consisting of a decahydroazulene moiety, substituted with two methyl groups and a 1-methylethyl group at the 1-, 4-, and 7-position, respectively. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Curcumol.
