Description

2-Methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-enone is a monoterpene that is found in essential oils of many plants, such as caraway, dill, and peppermint. It has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria. 2-Methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-enone has also been shown to be an effective treatment for infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and leprosy. In vitro assays have shown that this compound inhibits the growth of bacteria by lysing the cells of the bacteria. This chemical also minimally affects the locomotor activity in mice and does not cause death at high doses when given orally to rats.
