描述
Dihydrocapsenone is a member of the class of compounds known as eremophilane, 8,9-secoeremophilane and furoeremophilane sesquiterpenoids. Eremophilane, 8,9-secoeremophilane and furoeremophilane sesquiterpenoids are sesquiterpenoids with a structure based either on the eremophilane skeleton, its 8,9-seco derivative, or the furoeremophilane skeleton. Eremophilanes have been shown to be derived from eudesmanes by migration of the methyl group at C-10 to C-5. Dihydrocapsenone is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Dihydrocapsenone can be found in a number of food items such as italian sweet red pepper, red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, and pepper (c. annuum), which makes dihydrocapsenone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
