Naturally occurring monoterpene (see also under terpenes). Sabinene is mainly found in the essential oils of marjoram and the leaves of Juniperus sabina(sabina tree).
Sabinene is also found in marjoram, lime, masterwort, yarrow, black cardamom and juniper.
Pure sabinene is a light- and oxidation-sensitive oily liquid that is insoluble in water. It dissolves in ethanol and diethyl ether. The sabinene-containing essential oil of the sade tree was formerly used to treat verrucae vulgares and condylomata acuminata due to its highly irritating, necrotic effect on the skin. Today, sabinene is still used homeopathically.
