Xanthanolides | CHEMONTID:0000502 | Sesquiterpenoids with a structure based on the xanthanolide skeleton consistsing of a cycloheptane ring usually attached to a four-carbon chain (at carbon 1 ) and a methyl group (at carbon 10), and fused to a five-member lactone ring (sharing carbons 7 and 8). The lactone ring can be conjugated with a methyl or methylene group at position 11. |
Xanthenes | CHEMONTID:0000200 | Polycyclic aromatic compounds containing a xanthene moiety, which consists of two benzene rings joined to each other by a pyran ring. |
Xanthines | CHEMONTID:0000247 | Purine derivatives with a ketone group conjugated at carbons 2 and 6 of the purine moiety. |
Xanthones | CHEMONTID:0000204 | Polycyclic aromatic compounds containing a xanthene moiety conjugated to a ketone group at carbon 9. Xanthene is a tricyclic compound made up of two benzene rings linearly fused to each other through a pyran ring. |
Xanthophylls | CHEMONTID:0001410 | Carotenoids containing an oxygenated carotene backbone. Carotenes are characterized by the presence of two end-groups (mostly cyclohexene rings, but also cyclopentene rings or acyclic groups) linked by a long branched alkyl chain. Carotenes belonging form a subgroup of the carotenoids family. Xanthophylls arise by oxygenation of the carotene backbone. |
Xeniaphyllane and xenicane diterpenoids | CHEMONTID:0002879 | Diterpenoids with a structure based either on the xeniaphyllane or the xenicane skeleton. |
Xylenes | CHEMONTID:0004208 | Aromatic compounds that contain a xylene moiety, which is a monocyclic benzene carrying exactly two methyl groups. |
Xylenols | CHEMONTID:0004212 | Aromatic compounds that contain a xylene moiety, which is a monocyclic benzene carrying exactly two methyl groups, and at least one hydroxyl group. |
