Abstract

The earliest studies on monoterpenes date back to the 1800’s. Nevertheless, this area remains of current interest since monoterpenes are abundant in volatile plant and seaweed oils (1). As the simplest terpenoids, monoterpenes are formed by the dimerization of isoprene (C5) equivalents, and have carbon skeletons which are subdivided into regular or rearranged isoprene types (2). In spite of such a simple genesis, about ten different carbon frameworks had been identified by 1920, and by 1972 they included 30 from a pool of more than 400 compounds (3). In recent years the study of monoterpenes has attracted the attention of diverse groups ranging from organic chemists to ecologists (4–7). Not surprisingly, the monoterpene literature includes reviews on their biochemistry, biosynthesis, synthesis, or structure determination (1–4, 8–11).
