MOLECULE

Geranyl-PP

Geranyl-PP, also known as neryl diphosphate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as isoprenoid phosphates. These are prenol lipids containing a phosphate group linked to an isoprene (2-methylbuta-1,3-diene) unit. Thus, geranyl-PP is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Geranyl-PP is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Geranyl-PP is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
