Chapter 23, Problem 2PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The isoprene units in the given compounds are to be shown and each of them as per their isoprene units are to be classified.
Concept introduction:
Essential oils are mixtures of odoriferous compounds that are extracted from plants by heating or steam distillation. These essential oils have important chemical composition of hydrocarbons called terpenes and oxygen-containing compounds called terpenoids.
A single isoprene unit consists of 5-carbon atoms with double bonds, and its chemical formula is
