कपूर, whose IUPAC name is 1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one, is a terpenoid organic compound with a chemical formula of C10H16O. It is a white or transparent waxy solid at room temperature and can be used to repel insects. कपूर is extracted from the trunk of कपूर tree. The older the कपूर tree, the more कपूर is in it. The extraction method is to cut the tree trunk into small pieces and distill it with water.
