Description

ChEBI: A terpene ketone in which an (E,E)-farnesyl group is bonded to one of the alpha-methyls of acetone.


E,E-Farnesylacetone, is a natural organic compound which is present in many essential oils. It has been shown that, Farnesylacetone inhibits electron transport in isolated rat liver mitochondria.


Colourless or pale straw-coloured oily liquid; intensely sweet, floral odour


Farnesyl acetone is a terpene ketone in which an (E,E)-farnesyl group is bonded to one of the alpha-methyls of acetone. It has a role as a hormone and a metabolite. It contains a 2-trans,6-trans-farnesyl group.
