Description | alpha-Carene, also known as 3-carene or Delta (3)-carene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as bicyclic monoterpenoids. These are monoterpenoids containing exactly 2 rings, which are fused to each other. alpha-Carene is possibly neutral. alpha-Carene is a colorless compound with a sweet, citrus, and lemon taste and a sweet, penetrating odor. alpha-Carene is found in highest concentrations in common thymes, fennels, and cumins and in lower concentrations in pot marjorams, winter savories, and star anises. alpha-Carene has also been detected in sweet marjorams, yellow bell peppers, red bell peppers, tarragons, and pepper (c. frutescens). This could make alpha-carene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Delta (3)-carene is also found in cannabis plants (PMID: 6991645 ). Delta-(3)-Carene is predominantly used in the perfume industry for producing essential oils. It is also an intermediate in perfume synthesis and a precursor for insecticides of the pyrethroid type ( Ref:DOI ). |
