Volatile organic compounds: Plant natural defense mechanisms against herbivorous arthropods and an opportunity for plant breeding of cotton [PDF]
Plants' natural defense mechanisms against herbivorous arthropods include the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC). Nowadays field observations about plant-insect interactions are better understood thanks to the increasingly scientific ...

Isoprenoid emission in hygrophyte and xerophyte European woody flora: ecological and evolutionary implications [PDF]
Aim The relationship between isoprenoid emission and hygrophily was investigated in woody plants of the Italian flora, which is representative of European diversity.

Synergistic O_3 + OH oxidation pathway to extremely low-volatility dimers revealed in β-pinene secondary organic aerosol [PDF]
Dimeric compounds contribute significantly to the formation and growth of atmospheric secondary organic aerosol (SOA) derived from monoterpene oxidation. However, the mechanisms of dimer production, in particular the relevance of gas- vs.

Unambiguous identification of esters as oligomers in secondary organic aerosol formed from cyclohexene and cyclohexene/α-pinene ozonolysis [PDF]
The build-up of oligomeric compounds during secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation is subject of atmospheric research since several years. New particle formation and especially the SOA mass yield might be influenced significantly by oligomer formation.

Leaf carotenoid concentrations and monoterpene emission capacity under acclimation of the light reactions of photosynthesis [PDF]
Factors controlling the seasonal dynamics (days-weeks) in leaf monoterpene emission capacity are not yet well understood. Volatile isoprenoids, such as monoterpenes, and higher isoprenoids such as carotenoids share the initial steps of their synthesis ...

Reversible and irreversible processing of biogenic olefins on acidic aerosols [PDF]
International audienceRecent evidence has suggested that heterogeneous chemistry of oxygenated hydrocarbons, primarily carbonyls, plays a role in the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA); however, evidence is emerging that direct uptake of ...

Preparation, Characterization and Reactivity of (3-Methylpentadienyl)iron(1+) Cations [PDF]
The title cations (9 and 12) were prepared by dehydration of (3-methyl-2,4-pentadien-1-ol)Fe(CO)2L+ complexes. The structure of the (CO)2PPh3-ligated 12 was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Reaction of carbon and heteroatom nucleophiles to (3-
