Definition
Dihydrogeranylgeranyl-pp is practically insoluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Dihydrogeranylgeranyl-pp can be found in a number of food items such as chives, nanking cherry, muscadine grape, and towel gourd, which makes dihydrogeranylgeranyl-pp a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyclic diterpenoids. These are diterpenoids (compounds made of four consecutive isoprene units) that do not contain a cycle.
