  <name>Myrtenyl methyl ether</name>
  <description>Myrtenyl methyl ether is a member of the class of compounds known as bicyclic monoterpenoids. Bicyclic monoterpenoids are monoterpenoids containing exactly 2 rings, which are fused to each other. Myrtenyl methyl ether is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Myrtenyl methyl ether can be found in hyssop and orange mint, which makes myrtenyl methyl ether a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.</description>
