beta-Santalene
(-)-beta-santalene is a sesquiterpene and carbobicyclic compound that is bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane in which the hydrogens at position 3 are substituted by a methylidene group, while the 2-exo- and 2-endo- hydrogens are subsitituted by 2-methylpent-2-en-5-yl and methyl groups, respectively (the 1S,2R,4R enantiomer). It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a sesquiterpene, a polycyclic olefin, a bridged compound and a carbobicyclic compound.
