Note

(2-trans-6-trans)-farnesoate, also known as (2e,6e)-farnesoic acid or trans,trans-farnesoic acid, is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units (2-trans-6-trans)-farnesoate is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). (2-trans-6-trans)-farnesoate can be found in a number of food items such as chinese water chestnut, wasabi, adzuki bean, and garden onion (variety), which makes (2-trans-6-trans)-farnesoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
