The molecule is a spiro compound that is vetispirane that has been dehydrogenated to introduce a double bond position 6-7 and in which the isopropyl subsbstituent has been replaced by a prop-1-en-2-yl group (the 2R,5S,10R isomer). It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a spiro compound and a sesquiterpene. It derives from a hydride of a vetispirane.
