Definition
Tetrahydrogeranylgeranyl-pp is practically insoluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Tetrahydrogeranylgeranyl-pp can be found in a number of food items such as muskmelon, wax gourd, deerberry, and pineapple, which makes tetrahydrogeranylgeranyl-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.
