Common Name4,4-Dimethyl-5a-cholesta-8,24-dien-3-b-ol
Description4,4-Dimethyl-5a-cholesta-8,24-dien-3-b-ol, also known as 14-demethyllanosterol or 4,4-dimethyl-8,24-cholestadienol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as triterpenoids. These are terpene molecules containing six isoprene units. 4,4-Dimethyl-5a-cholesta-8,24-dien-3-b-ol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 4,4-Dimethyl-5a-cholesta-8,24-dien-3-b-ol is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
