Chiral monoterpenes reveal forest emission mechanisms and drought responses
Nature, 2021 Monoterpenes (C10H16) are emitted in large quantities by vegetation to the atmosphere (>100 TgC year−1), where they readily react with hydroxyl radicals and ozone to form new particles and, hence, clouds, affecting the Earth’s radiative budget and ...

Selected Monocyclic Monoterpenes and Their Derivatives as Effective Anticancer Therapeutic Agents
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Terpenes—a diverse group of secondary metabolites—constitute the largest class of natural products abundant in almost every plant species. The properties of concrete terpenes and essential oils have been intensively studied due to their widespread use in

Monoterpene Synthase Genes and Monoterpene Profiles in Pinus nigra subsp. laricio [PDF]
Plants, 2022 In the present study, we carried out a quantitative analysis of the monoterpenes composition in different tissues of the non-model conifer Pinus nigra J.F. Arnold subsp. laricio Palib. ex Maire (P. laricio, in short). All the P. laricio tissues examined showed the presence of the same fourteen monoterpenes, among which the most abundant were β ...

, 2021 The two monoterpenes, Δ3-carene and α-pinene, have very similar chemical structures, which leads to the assumption that the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is also similar.

A Toolbox for Diverse Oxyfunctionalisation of Monoterpenes [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractThe successful implementation of synthetic biology for chemicals biosynthesis relies on the availability of large libraries of well-characterized enzymatic building blocks. Here we present a scalable pipeline that applies the methodology of synthetic biology itself to bootstrap the creation of such a library.

Structural basis for promiscuous action of monoterpenes on TRP channels
Communications Biology, 2021 Monoterpenes are major constituents of plant-derived essential oils and have long been widely used for therapeutic and cosmetic applications. The monoterpenes menthol and camphor are agonists or antagonists for several TRP channels such as TRPM8, TRPV1 ...

New Insights Into Biopesticides: Solid and Liquid Formulations of Essential Oils and Derivatives
Frontiers in Agronomy, 2021 Essential oils and derivatives have shown effective insecticidal activity against different agricultural pests. However, the use of these bioactive compounds can result in negative effects due to their high volatility and difficult handling.

Latitudinal resource gradient shapes multivariate defense strategies in a long‐lived shrub
Ecology, Volume 103, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Plant defense against herbivores is multidimensional, and investment into different defense traits is intertwined due to genetic, physiological, and ecological costs. This relationship is expected to generate a trade‐off between direct defense and tolerance that is underlain by resource availability, with increasing resources being associated ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Two new thio-compounds named aspergerthinol A and B (1 and 2) and two new monoterpenes named aspergerthinacids A and B (3 and 4) were isolated from the fungus Aspergillus sp. CYH26 from the rhizosphere soil of Cynanchum bungei Decne.

Selective Electrochemical Dibromination of Terpenes and Naturally Derived Olefins
European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 2022, Issue 47, December 19, 2022., 2022 A highly selective electrochemical dibromination method of terpenes and naturally derived olefins to functional intermediates has been established using bench‐stable, inexpensive sodium bromide as bromine source at carbon‐based electrodes. Abstract A simple electrochemical protocol is established for the selective alkene dibromination of naturally ...
