Metabolite Identification
Common Namealpha-Cedrene
Descriptionalpha-Cedrene, also known as a-cedrene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cedrane and isocedrane sesquiterpenoids. These are sesquiternoids with a structure based on the cedrane or the isocedrane skeleton. Cedrane is a tricyclic molecules a 3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-1H-3a,7-methano-azulene moiety. Isocedrane is a rearranged cedrane arising from the migration of methyl group moved from the 6-position to the 4-position. Thus, alpha-cedrene is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. alpha-Cedrene is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
