Acidic Aroma Constituents of Turkish Tobacco: Terpenoid Acids Related to Tobacco Thunberganoids

Abstract
Acidic aroma constituents of Turkish tobacco have been studied. Three new compounds, 4-isopropyl-7-oxo-2E-octenoic acid (I), 6-isopropyl-3-methyl-9-oxo-2Z,4E-decadienoic acid (II) and 6-isopropyl-3-methyl-9-oxo-2E,7E-decadienoic acid (III) were isolated from cured Turkish tobacco and their structures were elucidated on the base of the spectroscopic properties. These new constituents are considered to be derived from tobacco thunberganoids.
