Description: The molecule is a sesquiterpene phytoalexin that is (S)-beta-macrocarpene in which the methyl group that is attached to a double bond has undergone formal oxidation to give the corresponding carboxylic acid. It is produced by maize (Zea mays) to provide biochemical protection against fungal infection. It is an alpha,beta-unsaturated monocarboxylic acid and a sesquiterpene phytoalexin. It derives from a (S)-beta-macrocarpen-15-ol. It is a conjugate acid of a zealexin A1(1-).
