(a)
Interpretation:
Given compound needs to be identified whether it is monoterpene, diterpene or a sesquiterpene.
Concept Introduction :
Terpenes are the natural molecules produced by plants by linking two or more molecular units of isoprene. Classification of isoprene can be given as:
No. of carbons | No. of isoprene units | Type of terpene |
