{{#invoke:Infobox|infobox}} (-)-germacrene D synthase (EC 4.2.3.75) is an enzyme with system name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase ((-)-germacrene-D-forming).<ref>{{#invoke:Citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=journal }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:Citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=journal }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:Citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=journal }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:Citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=journal }}</ref> This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> (-)-germacrene D + diphosphate

In Solidago canadensis the biosynthesis results in the pro-R hydrogen at C-1 of the farnesy diphosphate.
