General Description

Phenol, 3-methoxy-5-(2-phenylethenyl)-, (Z)-, also known as eugenol, is a naturally occurring chemical compound found in essential oils such as clove oil, nutmeg, and cinnamon. It has a pleasant, spicy aroma and is commonly used as a flavoring agent in food and beverages. Eugenol also possesses antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a popular ingredient in traditional medicine and personal care products. It is known for its ability to relieve pain and reduce inflammation, and has been studied for its potential use in treating various health conditions such as dental infections and inflammatory diseases. However, eugenol should be used with caution as it can be toxic in large doses.

ENDOGENEOUS PINE WOOD NEMATICIDAL SUBSTANCES IN PINES, PINUS MASSONIANA, P. STROBUS AND P. PALUSTRIS

The presence of the repellents and nematicides to the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, was found in the heartwood and bark of Pinus massoniana, P. strobus and P. palustris, which have a resistance to the pine wood nematode.The heartwood of P. massoniana contained a repellent, α-humulene and two nematicidal substances, pinosylvin monomethylether (PMS) and (-)-nortrachelogenin for the nematode.The bark of the pine contained two nematicides, methyl ferulate and (+)-pinoresinol.PMS, which showed the highest nematicidal activity (LD 50 was 4 ppm), was also contained in the heartwood of P. strobus and the heartwood and bark of P. palustris.The resistance of these pines to the pine wood nematode is considered to be attributed to the presence of these endogenously defending substances.Further, the relationship between the structure and the nematicidal activity was elucidated for PSM and methyl ferulate.Moreover, PSM showed little anti-acetylcholinesterase activity.
