Chemical Information
FooDB NameFarnesol
DescriptionComponent of many flower absolutes [CCD] Farnesol is a natural organic compound which is an acyclic sesquiterpene alcohol found as a colorless liquid. It is insoluble in water, but miscible with oils. It is the building block of most, and possibly all, acyclic sesquiterpenoids and is an important starting compound for organic synthesis. [Wikipedia]. Farnesol is found in many foods, some of which are ginger, cumin, sweet basil, and highbush blueberry.
