Nerylacetone is an intermediate in the synthesis of cis-Nerolidol (N390125), one of the main component in the essential oils from fresh aerial parts of Thymus ciliatus (Lamiaceae). Also, it is a terpene that displays high potency on the contractility of cardiac muscle in guinea pig left atrium. A potential and effective treatment for malaria. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
