Biochemical Characterization and Homology Modeling of Methylbutenol Synthase and Implications for Understanding Hemiterpene Synthase Evolution in Plants [PDF]
2-Methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO) is a five-carbon alcohol produced and emitted in large quantities by many species of pine native to western North America. MBO is structurally and biosynthetically related to isoprene and can have an important impact on regional atmospheric chemistry.

New Coumarin-Hemiterpene Ether Glucosides and a Structurally Related Phenylpropanoic Acid Derivative from Artemisia Armeniaca [PDF]
Two new coumarin-hemiterpene ether glucosides, 4’- O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl) desoxylacarol (1), and 5- O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl) lacarol (2), were isolated from the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Artemisia armeniaca Lam. Their structures were established by means of spectroscopic analysis including 1

Hymenosides A-F, Six New Hemiterpene Glucosides from the Japanese Fern Hymenophyllum barbatum.
In the course of investigation of the bitter-tasting substances of the Japanese fern Hymenophyllum barbatum belonging to the family Hymenophyllaceae, six new hemiterpene glucosides called hymenosides A-F (1-6) have been isolated from the methanol extract, together with an acyclic bis-bibenzyl derivative, perrottetin H.

New Bitter-Tasting Hemiterpene Glycosides from the Japanese Fern Hymenophyllum barbatum.
Hymenosides G--J were newly isolated from the Japanese fern Hymenophyllum barbatum, in addition to hymenosides A--F. The structures of hymenosides were elucidated by extensive two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance and/or chemical evidence. The structures of those aglycones were divided into three types, 1,4-dihydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-but-2-ene, 1,4-

Plant-Origin Coumarin-Hemiterpene Ethers and Their Chemotaxonomic Significance
Context: A particular class of coumarins, known as coumarin-hemiterpene ethers (CHEs), consists of a coumarin nucleus and a prenyloxy portion. No detailed report on natural coumarin-hemiterpene ethers (NCHEs) and their plant sources is available.

Bacterial Degradation of tert-Amyl Alcohol Proceeds via Hemiterpene 2-Methyl-3-Buten-2-ol by Employing the Tertiary Alcohol Desaturase Function of the Rieske Nonheme Mononuclear Iron Oxygenase MdpJ [PDF]
Tertiary alcohols, such as tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) and tert-amyl alcohol (TAA) and higher homologues, are only slowly degraded microbially. The conversion of TBA seems to proceed via hydroxylation to 2-methylpropan-1,2-diol, which is further oxidized to 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid. By analogy, a branched pathway is expected for the degradation of TAA, as
