Simple chiral diene ligands provide high enantioselectivities in transition-metal-catalyzed conjugate addition reactions.

Org. Lett. 10 , 4387-4389, (2008)

Chiral dienes possessing the bicyclo[2.2.2]octadiene framework were prepared readily through the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of ( R)-alpha-phellandrene with methyl propiolate as the key step. Diene 9, substituted with a tertiary alcohol on one of the two double bon...

[Study on chemical constituents and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil from Acanthopanax brachypus].

Zhong Yao Cai 32(1) , 67-70, (2009)

The chemical constituents and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil from Acanthopanax brachypus were studied.The essential oil was extracted from the stem of A. brachypus by steam distillation, and its antimicrobial activity was tested in vitro. The che...

Monoterpenes in the glandular trichomes of tomato are synthesized from a neryl diphosphate precursor rather than geranyl diphosphate.

Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 106(26) , 10865-70, (2009)

We identified a cis-prenyltransferase gene, neryl diphosphate synthase 1 (NDPS1), that is expressed in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cultivar M82 type VI glandular trichomes and encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of neryl diphosphate fr...

Chemoprevention by essential oil of turmeric leaves (Curcuma longa L.) on the growth of Aspergillus flavus and aflatoxin production.

Food Chem. Toxicol. 49(5) , 1188-92, (2011)

Turmeric is well known for a wide range of medicinal properties. Essential oil of turmeric leaves (Curcuma longa L.) were evaluated at varying concentrations of 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 and 1.5% (v/v) in Yeast Extract Sucrose (YES) broth inoculated wit...

Alcaligenes defragrans sp. nov., description of four strains isolated on alkenoic monoterpenes ((+)-menthene, alpha-pinene, 2-carene, and alpha-phellandrene) and nitrate.

Syst. Appl. Microbiol. 21(2) , 237-44, (1998)

Four pseudomonad strains 51Men, 54Pin, 62Car and 65Phen were recently isolated on the monoterpenes (+)-menthene, alpha-pinene, 2-carene and alpha-phellandrene as sole carbon source and nitrate as electron acceptor. These bacteria were characterised. The motil...

Comparative essential oil composition and antifungal effect of bitter fennel (Foeniculum vulgare ssp. piperitum) fruit oils obtained during different vegetation.

J. Med. Food 9(4) , 552-61, (2006)

The chemical composition of the flower and unripe and ripe fruits from fennel (bitter) (Foeniculum vulgare ssp. piperitum) has been examined by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The main identified components of the flower and unrip...

Biotransformation of gamma-terpinene and (-)-alpha-phellandrene by the larvae of common cutworm (Spodoptera litura).

J. Agric. Food Chem. 48(7) , 2893-5, (2000)

gamma-Terpinene was mixed in artificial diet at a concentration of 1 mg/g of diet, and the diet was fed to the last instar larvae of common cutworm (Spodoptera litura). Metabolites were recovered from frass and analyzed spectroscopically. gamma-Terpinene was ...

Antinociceptive activity of the monoterpene α-phellandrene in rodents: possible mechanisms of action.

J. Pharm. Pharmacol. 64(2) , 283-92, (2012)

The aim of this work was to investigate the antinociceptive property of α-phellandrene (α-PHE) in experimental nociception models and possible mechanisms involved.Mass spectrometry was used to evaluate the purity and molecular mass of α-PHE. Macrophages from ...

Comparative matrix isolation infrared spectroscopy study of 1,3- and 1,4-diene monoterpenes (α-phellandrene and γ-terpinene).

J. Phys. Chem. A 115(17) , 4342-53, (2011)

In the present work, γ-terpinene (a 1,4-diene derivative) and α-phellandrene (1,3-diene derivative) were isolated in cryogenic argon matrices and their structures, vibrational spectra, and photochemistries were characterized with the aid of FTIR spectroscopy ...

Biotransformation of (-)-(R)-α-phellandrene: antimicrobial activity of its major metabolite.

Chem. Biodivers. 9(8) , 1525-32, (2012)

Terpene derivatives converted by microbial biotransformation constitute an important resource for natural pharmaceutical, fragrance, and aroma substances. In the present study, the monoterpene α-phellandrene was biotransformed by 16 different strains of micro...
