Description

(±)7-EpiJasmonic acid is a carotenoid ester that has been found to have biological properties for weed control. It is the methyl ester of jasmonic acid, which is a fatty acid. The compound has been shown to be effective in suppressing plant diseases such as powdery mildew. The chemical transformation of (±)7-epiJasmonic acid can occur through methylation, hydroxylation, or nitro group formation. This process leads to the production of methyl jasmonate and nitrophenol. These compounds have been shown to have fertility effects on lettuce plants by increasing the number of seeds and seedlings produced.
