General description

(S)-(-)-Perillic acid is a perillyl derivative with potent antimicrobial and anticancer activity. It can be prepared via bio-oxidation of R-(+)-limonene.

Application

(S)-(−)-Perillic acid (PA) can be used as a starting material for the preparation of:,·        
  • Aryl amides, 4-(prop-1-en-2-yl)-N-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)cyclohex-1-ene-1-carboxamide and N-(4-(4-amino-2-methylphenethyl)-3-methylphenyl)-4-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-1-ene-1-carboxamide, as in vitro antiproliferative active agents.
  •  Machaeriols and cannabinoid-related compounds as antimalarial agents.   
  • Tricyclic-β-lactone by treating with 1-chloro-N,N-2-trimethylpropenylamine and dimethylketomalonate, followed by addition of 9-azajulolidine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Interferes with activity of p21ras and other small G proteins by inhibiting post-translational cysteine isoprenylation.
