Linalool prevents oxidative stress activated protein kinases in single UVB-exposed human skin cells. [PDF]
Ultraviolet-B radiation (285-320 nm) elicits a number of cellular signaling elements. We investigated the preventive effect of linalool, a natural monoterpene, against UVB-induced oxidative imbalance, activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)

Antibacterial Activity of Linalool and Its Loading Performance into Nanofibers [PDF]
This study investigated the antibacterial efficacy of linalool against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas fragi, and it also employed non-thermal electrospinning technology to encapsulate linalool in polycaprolactone (PCL) to produce

Enantiospecific (S)-(+)-Linalool Formation from beta-Myrcene by Linalool Dehydratase-Isomerase [PDF]
The linalool dehydratase-isomerase from Castellaniella defragrans strain 65Phen catalyzes in the thermodynamically unfavourable direction the hydration of β-myrcene to linalool and further the isomerization to geraniol, the initial steps in anaerobic β-myrcene biodegradation. We have now investigated the stereochemistry of this reaction.

Structure and Evolution of Linalool Synthase [PDF]
Plant terpene synthases constitute a group of evolutionarily related enzymes. Within this group, however, enzymes that employ two different catalytic mechanisms, and their associated unique domains, are known. We investigated the structure of the gene encoding linalool synthase (LIS), an enzyme that uses geranyl pyrophosphate as a substrate and ...

Chemical Diversity in Basil (Ocimum sp.) Germplasm
The present study aimed to chemically characterize 31 accessions and seven cultivars of basil. The percentage composition of the essential oils of the accessions and cultivars was based on the 14 most abundant constituents: 1,8-cineole, linalool, methyl ...

A Hoveyda–Grubbs‐Type Olefin Metathesis Catalyst Bearing a Fluorinated Unsymmetrical NHC Ligand
A fluorinated unsymmetrical NHC ruthenium complex was synthesised and employed as a catalyst for olefin metathesis reactions. The modification of the steric and electronic properties of the NHC ligand through the introduction of fluorine substituents results in improved activity but lower selectivity compared to the analogous non‐fluorinated NHC ...
