Germacrane sesquiterpenoids are sesquiterpenoids having the germacrane skeleton, with a structure characterized by a cyclodecane ring substituted with an isopropyl and two methyl groups. Thus, germacrene is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Germacrene can be found in turmeric, which makes germacrene a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Germacrenes are a class of volatile organic hydrocarbons, specifically, sesquiterpenes. Germacrenes are typically produced in a number of plant species for their antimicrobial and insecticidal properties, though they also play a role as insect pheromones. Two prominent molecules are germacrene A and germacrene D .(-)-(7S)-germacrene-D(1E,5E)-germacra-1(10),4(15),5-trieneC15H24204.3511204.187800768(1E,5E)-1,5-dimethyl-8-(propan-2-ylidene)cyclodeca-1,5-dienegermacrene B15423-57-1CC(C)=C1CC\C(C)=C\CC\C(C)=C\C1InChI=1S/C15H24/c1-12(2)15-10-8-13(3)6-5-7-14(4)9-11-15/h6,9H,5,7-8,10-11H2,1-4H3/b13-6+,14-9+GXEGJTGWYVZSNR-SJRHNVSNSA-N belongs to the class of organic compounds known as germacrane sesquiterpenoids.
