Mustakone is a tricylic sesquiterpenoid with the chemical formula C15H22O. It is named after the plant it was first extracted from Cyperus rotundus, which had the common name "mustuka" in Hindi.[2] Mustakone can be found in a variety of plants and their oils like Myrcia sylvatica,[citation needed] Cyperus articulatus,[3] and Hymenaea courbaril.
