Sesquiterpenes
Fifteen-carbon compounds formed from three isoprenoid units with general formula C15H24.
The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.
