Chemical Information
FooDB NameFarnesal
Description2-trans,6-trans-Farnesal, also known as (2E,6E)-farnesal, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. These are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Thus, 2-trans,6-trans-farnesal is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. 2-trans,6-trans-Farnesal is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
