Mutual solubility data of water + pentan-1-ol and liquid−liquid equilibrium of water + pentan-1-ol +2,6,6-trimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hep-2-ene (α-pinene) and water + pentan-1-ol + 6,6-dimethyl-2-methylenebicyclo[3.1.1]heptane (β-pinene) have been measured experimentally at (293.15, 303.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K under atmospheric pressure. The estimated uncertainty of phase composition and temperature were about (0.0005 and 0.05) K, respectively. The experimental ternary liquid−liquid equilibrium data have been simultaneously predicted and correlated by the extended and modified UNIQUAC models.

α-Pinene, β-pinene and turpentine are renewable resources that are widely used in fine chemicals, fuels and other applications, and the safety of their production, transport and use should be considered. In this work, the characteristics and hazardous of the oxidation process of α-pinene, β-pinene and turpentine were investigated by using a novel mini closed pressure vessel testing system (MCPVT). The oxidation products were resolved by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The results showed that α-pinene, β-pinene and turpentine were stable under nitrogen atmosphere and very active chemically under oxygen atmosphere. The activation energies ( E a ) of α-pinene, β-pinene and turpentine were calculated to be 78.87, 109.69 and 98.82 kJ/mol, respectively, using pressure–time (P-t) curves. So, the reaction activity sequence was α-pinene > turpentine > β-pinene. The peroxide concentrations of α-pinene (363 K), β-pinene (358 K) and turpentine (363 K) could reach 81.94, 84.70 and 75.76 mmol/kg, respectively, at relatively low temperatures. 0.6 g of α-pinene exploded at a system temperature of 369 K and an oxygen pressure of 1.23 MPa. 0.6 g of β-pinene also exploded at a system temperature of 373 K and an oxygen pressure of 1.27 MPa. 0.4 g of turpentine experienced thermal runaway at a system temperature of 384 K and an oxygen pressure of 0.81 MPa. The major oxidation products of α-pinene are α-campholenaldehyde, laevo-pinocarveol, verbenol, verbenone, bicyclo (3.1.1)heptane-2, 3-diol, 2, 6, 6-trimethyl, 2-cyclohexen-1-ol, 2-methyl-5-(1-methylethenyl)-, (1R,5R)-rel-, cyclobutaneacetic acid, 3-acetyl-2, 2-dimethyl, myrtenol and myrtenal. The major thermal runaway products are water, ethanol, acetone, acetic acid, 2-pentanone, propyl acetate, toluene, cymene and methylacetophenone. The major oxidation products of β-pinene are nopinone, laevo-pinocarveol, pinocarvone, myrtenol, myrtenal and perillyl alcohol. The major thermal runaway products are water, ethanol, acetone, n-ethyl propanoate, toluene, butyl acetate, cymene, apocamphor, nopinone, bornyl formate, methylacetophenone and dihydronopol. The oxidation products and thermal runaway products of pinene were significantly different. Possible reaction pathways for α-pinene and β-pinene are proposed.

As a natural medication and food plant resource, Liquidambar formosana Hance (L.) leaves are growing popularity in the fields of medicine and health care. The essential oil of L. leaves was extracted by continuous flow microreactor, and the extraction rate is 53.2%. 26 compounds from essential oil were identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The main components of these compounds are α-pinene, β-pinene and limonene. Ten of them are reported for the first time. The antibacterial activity of essential oil was investigated by the inhibition zone method, minimum inhibitory concentration and inhibition growth curve experiment. The results show that the essential oil had inhibitory effects on both Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Bacillus subtilis (B.subtilis), and the minimum inhibitory concentrations are 1.0 μg/mL and 1.2 μg/mL. The inhibition effect on gram-negative bacteria E.coli is stronger. The results of this study show that the essential oil contains rich medicinal value components and have great potential for exploitation. This research provided a scientific foundation for understanding essential oil while also providing a theoretical foundation for their full and rational utilization. Simultaneously, research into the antibacterial properties of essential oil provides a scientific basis for the further development of the anti-bacterial agents that exists in plants.

Recently, photoinduced associative ionization (PAI) has been demonstrated to be extremely efficient for the determination of oxygenated volatile organic compounds. However, its application for the determination hydrocarbons has not yet been reported. In this study, associative ionization of nine typical monoterpenes induced by dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) under vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light was investigated using a laboratory-constructed PAI time-of-flight mass spectrometer (PAI-TOFMS). Without doping CH2Cl2, VUV light generated ordinary photoionization mass spectra of monoterpenes that were dominated by fragment ions, while the molecular ions were inconspicuous. In contrast, doping with CH2Cl2 resulted in the appearance of mass peaks of the characteristic protonated molecular ions of the monoterpenes. The PAI method significantly enhanced the signals for the monoterpenes. The intensities of protonated molecular ions derived from PAI were amplified by 52 to 108 fold compared with those of molecular ions produced by VUV photoionization (VUV PI). With the high ionization efficiency of PAI toward monoterpenes, the sensitivities of PAI-TOFMS toward limonene, β-ocimene, β-myrcene, β-pinene, and α-pinene were from 291 ± 6 to 1338 ± 20 counts pptv−1 using an acquisition time of 30 s. The limits of detection were from 0.32 to 1.45 pptv, equivalent to between 1.92 and 8.83 ng m−3. The applicability of this ionization mode was further characterized by the determination of monoterpenes from potted Sabina chinensis. This study provides a new and highly efficient ionization method for the determination of plant monoterpenes using mass spectrometry.

Copper(II)-containing aluminum phosphate material (CuAPO-5) was synthesized hydrothermally and used as a multiphase catalyst for the oxidation of α-pinene to verbenone. The catalysts were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area techniques, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and ammonia temperature programmed reduction (NH3-TPD). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy spectrometry (EDS), inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) were performed to characterize the material. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, n(α-pinene)/n(TBHP), and solvent on the catalytic performance of CuAPO-5 were investigated. The results show that all the prepared catalysts have AFI topology and a large specific surface area. Copper is evenly distributed in the skeleton in a bivalent form. The introduction of copper increases the acid content of the catalyst. Under the optimized reaction conditions, 96.8% conversion of α-pinene and 46.4% selectivity to verbenone were achieved by CuAPO-5(0.06) molecular sieve within a reaction time of 12 h. CuAPO-5(0.06) can be recycled for five cycles without losing the conversion of α-pinene and the selectivity to verbenone.Keywords:CuAPO-5;α-pinene;selective oxidation;verbenone

Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium data of the binary system (−)-α-pinene + (−)-β-pinene and the quaternary system (−)-α-pinene + (−)-β-pinene + water + phenoxyacetic acid were measured at 313.2, 323.2, and 333.2 K using headspace gas chromatography. The experimental data showed that the addition of phenoxyacetic acid and water promoted the separation of (−)-α-pinene and (−)-β-pinene. The experimental data were correlated using the UNIQUAC and NRTL models. The two models showed good correlation for the binary system, whereas the UNIQUAC model gave more accuracy for the quaternary system. Moreover, the COSMO-RS model can be an efficacious method for predicting VLE data of the determined binary and quaternary systems. In addition, the optimal spatial configuration and binding energy between the molecules were obtained by DFT, and the effects on (−)-α-pinene and (−)-β-pinene with the addition of phenoxyacetic acid and water were discussed on the molecular scale.

Metabolic engineering of cyanobacteria has received much attention as a sustainable strategy to convert CO2 to various longer carbon chain fuels. Pinene has become increasingly attractive since pinene dimers contain high volumetric energy and have been proposed to act as potential aircraft fuels. However, cyanobacteria cannot directly convert geranyl pyrophosphate into pinene due to the lack of endogenous pinene synthase. Herein, we integrated the gene encoding Abies grandis pinene synthase into the model cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 through homologous recombination. The genetically modified cyanobacteria achieved a pinene titer of 1.525 ± 0.l45 mg L−1 in the lab-scale tube photobioreactor with CO2 aeration. Specifically, the results showed a mixture of α- and β-pinene (∼33:67 ratio). The ratio of β-pinene in the product was significantly increased compared with that previously reported in the engineered Escherichia coli. Furthermore, we investigated the photoautotrophic growth performances of Synechococcus overlaid with different concentrations of dodecane. The work demonstrates that the engineered Synechococcus is a suitable potential platform for β-pinene production.

Asarum essential oil (AEO) has been shown to have good pharmacological activities for the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, but increasing the dose may cause toxicity. Therefore, we studied the toxic and pharmacodynamic components of AEO by molecular distillation (MD). Anti-inflammatory activity was assessed using RAW264.7 cells. Neurotoxicity was assessed in PC12 cells and the overall toxicity of AEO was evaluated in the mouse acute toxicity assay. The results showed that AEO is primarily composed of safrole, methyl eugenol, and 3,5-dimethoxytoluene. After MD, three fractions were obtained and contained different proportions of volatile compounds relative to the original oil. The heavy fraction had high concentrations of safrole and methyl eugenol, while the light fraction contained high concentrations of α-pinene and β- pinene. The original oil and all three fractions exhibited anti-inflammatory effects, but the light fraction demonstrated more excellent anti-inflammatory activity than the other fractions. Asarum virgin oil and MD products are all neurotoxic. The exposure of PC12 cells to high concentrations of AEO resulted in abnormal nuclei, an increased number of apoptotic cells, increased ROS formation, and decreased SOD levels. Moreover, the results of acute toxicity tests in mice revealed that the light fractions were less toxic than virgin oils and other fractions. In summary, the data suggest that the MD technology enables the enrichment and separation of essential oil components and contributes to the selection of safe concentrations of AEO.

Simple SummaryButterfly larvae and adults can sense food odours from their surroundings, and exposure to these odours could alter larval or adult feeding preferences. However, it is still unknown whether butterfly pupae can sense odours from their surroundings. And little is known about how flower scents, in combination with food, affect butterfly adults’ subsequent foraging behaviour.Tirumala limniace(Lepidoptera: Danaidae) is a flower-visiting and highly charismatic butterfly. In this study,T. limniacepupae were exposed to the odour α-pinene and adults were exposed to the odours α-pinene and ethyl acetate to examine the effect of the experience on the foraging behaviour ofT. limniace. The results showed that exposure ofT. limniacepupae to α-pinene affected the feeding preference of newly emerged adults.T. limniaceexhibits olfactory learning in the adult stage, and adult odour preferences are correlated with the frequency of their training, though an increased training time does not necessarily imply an enhanced learning ability. Unlike some studies in other systems, we found thatT. limniacemales learned odours faster than females. This may be due to differences in antennal sensilla, affecting sensitivity to odours and nectar demand between males and females. Our study can help elucidate the important role of learning behaviour in butterfly adaptive responses to the environment and lay the foundation for further research on butterfly learning and memory.AbstractButterflies have the ability to learn to associate olfactory information with abundant food sources during foraging. How the co-occurrence of both food and food odours affects the learning behaviour of adults and whether butterflies perceive the odour of their surroundings and develop a preference for that odour during the pupal stage have rarely been tested. We examined the effect of experience with food odour components (α-pinene and ethyl acetate) during the pupal and adult stages on the foraging behaviour of the flower-visiting butterflyTirumala limniace. We found that α-pinene exposure during the pupal stage changed the foraging preference of newly emerged adults.T. limniaceexhibits olfactory learning in the adult stage, and adult learning may influence their previous pupal memory. Moreover, adults’ odour preference did not continue to increase over multiple training times. The learning ability of adults for floral odours (α-pinene) was greater than that for non-floral odours (ethyl acetate). In contrast to previous studies, we found that males learned odours more efficiently than females did. This could be attributed to differences in antennal sensilla, affecting sensitivity to compounds and nectar demand between males and females. Our study provides further insight into how olfactory learning helps flower-visiting butterflies use food odours to forage better.

Abstract The MOR supported cobalt complex materials were synthesized by ion exchange method and used to catalyze the epoxidation reaction of α-pinene with air. The liquid phase batch mode of epoxidation reaction was carried out under atmospheric pressure and aerobic conditions. Among the supported [Co(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+ -zeolites catalysts, [Co(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+ -MOR exhibited the best catalytic efficiency for the titled reaction, and high reaction conversion as well as epoxidation product selectivity were obtained for α-pinene and α-epoxypinane. Parametric studies were performed to examine the effect factors like the Co content, the solvent, the initiator, the substrate amount and the catalyst amount. The catalyst can be reused at least nine cycles without significant loss in activity towards epoxidation.

Plant essential oils (EOs) could be used as new alternatives of synthetic insecticides due to their environmental friendliness, safety to non-target organisms, and low-level resistance. In this study, the essential oil of Cephalotaxus sinensis (CSEO), an important Chinese medicinal species, showed potent insecticidal activity against Megoura japonica, Plutella xylostella and Sitophilus zeamais in laboratory bioassays; CSEO 20 % emulsifiable concentrate exhibited the control efficacy of 85.67 % against M . japonica after 7 days treatment at concentration of 0.25 % (w/v) in the greenhouse experiment. The GC-MS results showed that the main components of CSEO were α-pinene (37.89 %), β-caryophyllene (16.78 %) and germacrene D (10.79 %). Five active compounds, β-elemene (1) , β-caryophyllene (2) , β-phellandrene (3) caryophyllene oxide (4) and α-pinene (5) were isolated from CSEO. β-Caryophyllene (2) exhibited highest contact toxicity against M. japonica and P. xylostella , with the median lethal dose (LD 50 ) values of 0.072 μg/adult and 0.32 μg/larva, respectively. α-Pinene (5) showed the highest fumigant toxicity against M. japonica and P. xylostella , with the median lethal concentration (LC 50 ) values of 6.74 and 7.35 mg/L, respectively. Furthermore, β-phellandrene (3) had the potent contact and fumigant toxicity against S. zeamais with the LD 50 and LC 50 value of 2.19 μg/adult and 3.57 mg/L, respectively. Thus, CSEO and their major components have the potential to be developed as novel botanical insecticides for the control of agricultural pests.
