The image shows the structural formula of the organic compound beta-myrcene, a monoterpene. The structure consists of: 1. A six-membered benzene ring on the left side, indicative of its aromatic properties. 2. An isoprene unit, consisting of two methyl groups bonded to a vinyl group (CH₂=CH), which is connected to the benzene ring. 3. A double bond between the first and second carbon atoms from the benzene ring, denoting an alkene group. 4. An elongated carbon chain extending from the central carbon atom, ending with a double-bonded vinyl group on the right. This structure is typical for a monoterpene, which is a class of terpenes with two isoprene units. Myrcene is significant in the fragrance industry and is found in essential oils such as ylang-ylang, verbena, and bay.
