Phenylpropenes such as eugenol, chavicol, estragole, and anethole contribute to the flavor
and aroma of a number of important herbs and spices. They have been shown to function as …

The biosynthetic pathway of volatile phenylpropanoids, including 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol

A novel biobased benzoxazine monomer containing additional allyl functionality was
synthesized using a solventless approach from the reaction of a natural occuring phenol …

Phenolic compounds are ubiquitous in the plant kingdom. A main pathway for the formation
of these compounds starts with the aromatic amino acids L‐phenylalanine and–to a lesser …

Many plants synthesize the volatile phenylpropene compounds eugenol and isoeugenol to
serve in defense against herbivores and pathogens and to attract pollinators. Clarkia …
