Off-Shoot-O. The methyl esters of the Cg—C 2 fatty acids (40) are collectively sold under the name Off-Shoot-O and are closely related to 1-decanol, the fatty alcohol sold to control axillary shoots in tobacco. The material is a contact-type chemical used to pinch ornamental plants such as a2aleas, cotoneaster, juniper Juniperus sp. privet, rhamnus, and taxus (Taxus sp. sp.). As a result of treatment the shmbs become bushier. The mode of action is by plasmolysis of the young, sensitive tissues. Therefore, appHcation timing may be critical. [Pg.426]

Mule deer, Odocoikus hmionus hemionus, prefer juniper (Juniperus spp.) that contains lower amounts of volatile oils (i.e. oxygenated monoterpenes). Of three species tested, alligator juniper (J. deppeana) had the lowest level of volatile oils and was preferred, while Utah juniper (j. osteosperma) and Rocky Mountain juniper (J. scopulorum) ranked higher in volatile oil content and lower in preference by deer (Schwartz etal, 1980).

Cadinene is a trivial name of a number of isomers which occur in a wide variety of essential oils e.g. cubeb oil. Actually, it is derived from the Cade juniper Juniperus oxycedrus L.). The cadalane (4-isopropyl-1,6-dimethyldecahydro-naphthalene) carbon skeleton is the base. Prominent stereochemical isomers are a-cadinene 79, y-cadinene 80 and d-cadinene 81 (Structure 4.23). This group is also known as naphthalene-type sesquiterpenes. [Pg.57]

Comments There are two likely reasons why juniper oil acquired a tainted reputation, which has since been quoted and re-quoted. Firstly, there has undoubtedly been some confusion between juniper (Juniperus communis) and savin (Juniperus sabina). [Pg.209]

Information on eastern red cedar is limited. Based on chemical similarity, the data and classifications that apply to other species of juniper (Juniperus spp.) are believed to be applicable to eastern red cedar. [Pg.489]

Carene (3,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[4.1.0]hept-3-ene) is a component of the oil of turpentine from the tropieal pine Firms longifolia, also occurring in some species of fir Abies), juniper Juniperus) and Citrus. The ethereal oil from wood pine trees Firms silvestris contains the enantiomer (-)-3-carene. Carboxylic acids derived from carane and carene sueh as (+)-chaminic acid are found in Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (Cupressaeeae). [Pg.20]

Connecting the bonds C-l-C-6 and C-6-C-10 in famesane formally produces the spiro[4,5]decane basic skeleton of acorane. The name of this class of sesquiterpenes stems from the Acorus species. (-)-4-Acoren-3-one, for example, has been isolated from Acorus calamus (Calamus, Araceae) and from the carrot Daucus carota (Umbelliferae). The oil of calamus (oil of sweet flag) from the rhizome of Acorus calamus with its warm and spicy odor and pleasant bitter taste is predominantly used in perfumery and as a minor (possibly carcinogenic) ingredient of vermouth, some flavored wines and liqueurs. (+)-3,7(ll)-Acoradiene is a constituent of juniper Juniperus rigida its enantiomer occurs in Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (Cupressaceae). [Pg.45]

Constituents of Pinaceae and Cupressaceae include 8,5,18-labdanetrioI, (-)-labda-nolic acid and (+)-6-oxocativic acid. Numerous derivatives have been found in conifers such as pine (Pinus), fir (Abies), larch (Larix) and juniper (Juniperus). Selected examples are (+)-12,15-epoxy-8(17),12,14-labdatriene (pumiloxide) from Pinus pumila, (-l-)-12,14-labdadien-8-ol (abienol) from Pinus strobus and various Abies species, (+)-ll,13-labdadien-8-ol (neoabienol) from Abies sibirica, (-)-13(16),14-labdadien-8-ol (isoabienol), (+)-8(17)-labdene-15,18-dioic acid from the needles of Pinus silvestris (Pinaceae) and 14,15-dihydroxy-8(17),13(16)-labdadien-19-oic acid fxora Juniperus communis (Cupressaceae).

Juniperic ecid 16-hydroxypalmitic acid, HOCHj-(CH2)i4-COOH, a fatty acid, M, 272.42, m.p. 95°C.J.a. is a typical wax acid in the waxes of many gymnosperms, e.g. juniper (Juniperus communis). [Pg.341]

Nevertheless, if a lot of essential oils are repellent, some have been found to be highly attractive [10, 12]. The attractiveness of sandalwood oU, basil oil, and grapefruit oil in yellow sticky traps improved the number of trapped greenhouse whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood [43]. Cade oU, an essential oil produced by destructive distillation of juniper (Juniperus oxycedrus L.) twigs, synergized the attraction of alpha-ionol to tephritid fruit fly Bactrocera latifrons (Hendel) male [44].
