Meroterpene

A meroterpene is a chemical compound having a partial terpenoid structure.

Examples

Terpenophenolics

Terpenophenolics are compounds that are part terpenes, part natural phenols. Plants in the genus Humulus and Cannabis produce terpenophenolic metabolites.[1] Examples of terpenophenolics are:

Terpenophenolics can also be isolated from animals. The terpenophenolics methoxyconidiol, epiconicol and didehydroconicol, isolated from the ascidian Aplidium aff. densum, show antiproliferative activity.[2]
