    Terpenes

    Chemists make complex, oxygen-containing particles that are typically made by plants

    Chemists at Scripps Research have effectively established three families of complicated, oxygen-containing molecules that are normally available only from crops. These compounds, called terpenes, are possible starting points for new medications and other high-value products–marking an important development for multiple businesses. Additionally, the new strategy could allow chemists to develop a number of other classes
