A chemical compound found in arbutus or related plants, possibly having medicinal properties.
Derived from 'arbutus' (a type of plant), with the chemical suffix -in. The term appears in older pharmaceutical or botanical chemistry texts but is rarely used in modern chemistry.
This is the kind of plant-derived compound name that chemists gave before standardized nomenclature—nowadays we'd use IUPAC names, but 'arbusterin' reminds us of the era when chemistry was more descriptive.
