Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name(-)-Limonene
Descriptiond-Limonene, also known as dipentene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as menthane monoterpenoids. These are monoterpenoids with a structure based on the o-, m-, or p-menthane backbone. P-menthane consists of the cyclohexane ring with a methyl group and a (2-methyl)-propyl group at the 1 and 4 ring position, respectively. The o- and m- menthanes are much rarer, and presumably arise by alkyl migration of p-menthanes. Thus, D-limonene is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. d-Limonene is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. (-)-Limonene is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
