Germacrenes are a class of volatile organic hydrocarbons, specifically, sesquiterpenes. Germacrenes are typically produced in a number of plant species for their antimicrobial and insecticidal properties, though they also play a role as insect pheromones. Two prominent molecules are germacrene A and germacrene D.

Structures

[edit]

Germacrene has five isomers.

*Germacrene isomers*

Germacrene A	Germacrene B	Germacrene C	Germacrene D	Germacrene E

Natural occurrences

[edit]

The essential oils of red deadnettle (Lamium purpureum)^[1] and hedgenettles (genus Stachys)^[2] are characterized by their high contents of germacrene D, as is Clausena anisata. It is also a major component of patchouli oil.
