(1R,4S,4aR,8aS)-1,6-dimethyl-4-propan-2-yl-3,4,4a,7,8,8a-hexahydro-2H-naphthalen-1-ol Usage And Synthesis

Uses

δ-Cadinol ((-)-Torreyol) is an oxygenated sesquiterpene and can be isolated from Lepechinia salviae (Lindl.) Epling[1].

Definition

ChEBI: (-)-delta-cadinol is a cadinane sesquiterpenoid that consists of 1,6-dimethyl-4-(propan-2-yl)-1,2,3,4,4a,7,8,8a-octahydronaphthalene having a hydroxy substituent at position 1 and (1R,4S,4aR,8aS)-configuration. It has a role as an algal metabolite and a plant metabolite. It is a cadinane sesquiterpenoid, a member of octahydronaphthalenes and a tertiary alcohol. It is an enantiomer of a (+)-delta-cadinol.
