Metabolite Identification
Common NameEucalyptol
DescriptionEucalyptol, also known as 1,8-cineol or cineole, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as oxanes. Oxanes are compounds containing an oxane (tetrahydropyran) ring, which is a six-member saturated aliphatic heterocycle with one oxygen atom and five carbon atoms. Thus, eucalyptol is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Eucalyptol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
