Chemical Information
FooDB NameGermacrone
DescriptionGermacrone is a member of the class of compounds known as germacrane sesquiterpenoids. Germacrane sesquiterpenoids are sesquiterpenoids having the germacrane skeleton, with a structure characterized by a cyclodecane ring substituted with an isopropyl and two methyl groups. Germacrone is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Germacrone can be found in common thyme and turmeric, which makes germacrone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Germacrone is an antiviral isolate of Geranium macrorrhizum .
