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). 

More than 200 diterpenes with an abietane skeleton are reported to exist naturally Numerous representatives oeeur in conifers. Selected examples include palustra-diene, also referred to as (-)-8,13-abietadiene, from the pine tree Pintds palustris, from the so-called berries of the sade tree Juniperus sabina (Cupressaceae) and other species of juniper trees, (-)-abietenol from the pine Pinus silvestris and the fir Abies sibirica, (-)-abietic aeid belonging to the resin acids of turpentine and wide-spread in conifers such as various pines Pinus), larch trees Larix) and firs Abies), as well as (+)-palustric acid from the balm and the roots of Pinus palustris, isolated from gum rosin.
