What Are Terpenes?

Terpenes are naturally occurring compounds found in all organisms, particularly in aromatic plants. Organic chemistry extensively studies terpenes and their reactions due to their structural diversity and functional importance.

Terpenes have low toxicity and are widely used in essential oils, perfumes, vitamins, and food additives because of their distinctive aromas. These aromatic properties contribute directly to the characteristic smell of many consumer products.
