Natural Product Identification
Common Namebeta-Bisabolene
DescriptionBeta-Bisabolene is biochemically a sesquiterpenoid, comprised of three isoprene units. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes that contain 15 carbon atoms. Beta-Bisabolene is an isoprenoid lipid molecule which is very hydrophobic, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Bisabolene has three isomers (alpha-, beta-, and gamma-bisabolene) which differ by the positions of the double bonds. Beta-Bisabolene has a balsamic odor. Bisabolenes are naturally occurring sesquiterpenoid found in the essential oils of bisabol from the shrub Commiphora guidottii, and in a wide variety of other plants including cubeb, lemon, oregano and in trace amounts in cannabis plants (PMID: 6991645 ). Beta-Bisabolene is also found in cannabis smoke and is volatilized during the combustion of cannabis (https://Doi.Org/10.1007/978-1-59259-947-9_2). Bisabolenes are also produced by different insects such as stink bugs, fruit flies (PMID:11673844 ) And by several fungi (PMID: 25957494 ). Bisabolenes are intermediates in the biosynthesis of many other natural chemical compounds, including hernandulcin, a natural sweetener (PMID: 22867794 ) Which is approved as a food additive in Europe. Beta-Bisabolene has some medicinal properties. It had synergistic antibacterial activity with ampicillin against Staphylococcus aureus (PMID: 17235483 ) And was cytotoxic to breast cancer cell lines (PMID: 26666387 ).
