Eugenitin

Eugenitin is a chromone derivative, a type of phenolic compound found in cloves. It has also been isolated from the fungal species Cylindrocarpon sp. C.M.I. 127996.[1]

Synthesis

Eugenitin has also synthethised using the Kostanecki sodium acetate-acetic anhydride cyclization of C-methylphloracetophenone in 1952[2] and from visnagin, khellin and khellol in 1953.[3]

gollark: I could probably do it, but I don't care.
gollark: Because the framework I use doesn't do async like that.
gollark: You can do `vector.get(2)` to get an `Option<i32>` or whatever there.
gollark: But if you want to just do `vector[2]` and there's no element 2 panicking is better than uninitialized memory access.
gollark: Yes, as it also is in Rust.
