Chemical Structure
(-)-Limonene
Synonym(s): (S)-(-)-Limonene
- CAS No.: 5989-54-8
- Formula:C10H16
- Molecular Weight:136.23
IUPAC Name: (S)-1-methyl-4-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-1-ene
InChIKey: XMGQYMWWDOXHJM-SNVBAGLBSA-N
SMILES: CC1=CC[C@@H](C(C)=C)CC1
Biological Activity: (-)-Limonene ((S)-(-)-Limonene) is orally active and can cause mild bronchoconstriction. (-)-Limonene alleviates cytosolic and mitochondrial oxidative stress by inhibiting the increase of calcium ions (Ca2+) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII). It also exerts anti-stress effects by inhibiting the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Additionally, (-)-Limonene can be used as an antibacterial agent in aquaculture[1][2][3][4].
