Zerumbone
Zerumbone is a sesquiterpenoid and cyclic ketone that is (1E,4E,8E)-alpha-humulene which is substituted by an oxo group at the carbon atom attached to two double bonds. It is obtained by steam distillation from a type of edible ginger, Zingiber zerumbet Smith, grown particularly in southeast Asia. It has a role as a glioma-associated oncogene inhibitor, an anti-inflammatory agent and a plant metabolite. It is a sesquiterpenoid and a cyclic ketone. It derives from a hydride of an alpha-humulene. — ChEBI
