Monoterpene glycosides

Feverfew contains flavonoid glycosides, monoterpenes (eg, camphor, other pinene derivatives), and sesquiterpene lactones. The most prevalent sesquiterpene is parthenolide, which is primarily found in the seeds and leaves of the plant, with concentrations ranging from 1% to 3%. 

Nature Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) contains flavonoid glycosides, monoterpenes, and parthenolide, a lactone that forms covalent bonds with thiol groups on proteins.

Many nonvolatile and thermally labile allelochemicals can be well separated by liquid chromatography (LC). Identification of the separated components on-line by mass spectrometry (MS) is of great value. Fused-silica LC columns of 0.22 mm ID packed with small-particle material are used in the described LC/MS system. The shape of the column end allows direct connection to a electron impact ion source of a magnetic sector mass spectrometer. Separations by LC are reported and LC/MS mass spectra are shown for monoterpenes, diterpene acids, phenolic acids and cardiac glycosides. The LC/MS system provides identification capability and high-efficiency chromatography with a universal detector. 

The aglycon part of glycoside is often represented by monoterpenes, C13-norisoprenoids, benzene derivatives, and long-chain aliphatic alcohols (Fig. 18) [74, 75].

Several non-volatile iridoid monoterpenes occur as glycosides and have been observed to have biological activity. For example, xylomolin, from the unripe fruits of Xylocarpus moluccensis Roem. (Meliaceae) has antifeedant activity against Spodoptera exempta an African armyworm at 100 ppm ( ) and crotepoxide from Croton macrostachys (Euphorbiaceae) possesses antifeedant activity against Spodoptera exempta (85).
