α-Pinene is a biologically active monoterpene compound derived from coniferous plants, performing multiple ecological and physiological functions. Moreover, its strained bicyclic skeleton makes it an exceptional renewable feedstock for high-density renewable fuels. However, the extraction of α-pinene from plants is a...
