[3] Pinenes are also found in many non-coniferous plants such as camphorweed (Heterotheca)[4] and big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata).

[11] Resin from Pistacia terebinthus (commonly known as terebinth or turpentine tree) is rich in pinene.

This sterically crowded chiral trialkylborane can stereoselectively reduce aldehydes in what is known as the Midland Alpine borane reduction.

[17] β-Pinene can be converted to α-pinene in the presence of strong bases,[18] or pyrolysed to produce myrcene at 400 °C.

Pinenes, especially α, are the primary constituents of turpentine, a nature-derived solvent and fuel.

[19] Pinene dimers have been shown to have heating values comparable to the jet fuel JP-10.
