[ Terpenoid[ Terpenoid, Isoprenoid ] A class of naturally occurring aromatic lipids found in all classes of living things. Terpenoids are derived from the oxidation or rearrangement of the carbon skeletons of terpenes. Many terpenoids have antibacterial or other protective properties, in addition to being pigments and aromatics. The scent of eucalyptus is attributed to terpenoids, as well as the flavours More, Isoprenoid[ Terpenoid, Isoprenoid ] A class of naturally occurring aromatic lipids found in all classes of living things.

A class of naturally occurring aromatic[ Aromatic compound ] A cyclic, planar molecule with a ring of resonance bonds that are highly stable and do not readily react with other substances. While aromaticity as a chemical property bears no general relationship with the smell the term originated with the discovery that certain odiferous plant molecules, such as the terpenes, had common chemical properties. Also see: More lipids[ Lipid ] A group of naturally occurring organic compounds that include fats, waxes, sterols. Lipids can be either hydrophobic or amphiphilic. Lipids are biologically important for storing energy, signaling, and as structural components. The amphiphilic properties of some lipids makes them important building blocks of blood vesicles, liposomes, and membranes. The term lipids is often used as a synonym More found in all classes of living things.
