Common NameMethallylbenzene
Description3-phenyl-2-mehtyl-prop-1-ene, also known as Methallylbenzene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpropanes. These are organic compounds containing a phenylpropane moiety, which consists of a propene substituent bound to a phenyl group. Biochemically, Methallylbenzene is a monocyclic monoterpenoid as it is synthesized via isoprene units. Monoterpenoids are terpenes that contain 10 carbon atoms and are comprised of two isoprene units. The biosynthesis of monoterpenes is known to occur mainly through the methyl-erythritol-phosphate (MEP) pathway in plastids (PMID: 7640522 ). Geranyl diphosphate (GPP) is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of cyclic monoterpenes. GPP undergoes several cyclization reactions to yield a diverse number of cyclic arrangements. Methallylbenzene is a hydrophobic, neutral molecule that is insoluble in water. It is one of more than 140 naturally occurring terpenes found in cannabis plants (PMID:6991645 ) and the combination of these terpenoids produces the skunky, fruity odor characteristic of C. savita
