Title: chemical structure of Cedarleaf oil
Post by: NuttyPrincess on April 24, 2005, 12:49:35 PM

Does anyone know if there is a chemical structure for cedarleaf oil? I found the ones for camphor and menthol by searching for "camphor structure" on google with images... but this one doesn't seem to even bring anything up. I thought maybe it had to be broken down more. Thanks : )  ???
