'''Pinene''' is a collection of unsaturated bicyclic [[monoterpene]]s. Two geometric [[isomer]]s of pinene are found in nature, [[α-pinene]] and [[β-pinene]]. Both are chiral. As the name suggests, pinenes are found in [[pines]]. Specifically, pinene is the major component of the liquid extracts of [[Pinophyta|conifers]].<ref name=terp>{{Ullmann |doi=10.1002/14356007.a27_267|title=Turpentines |year=2000 |last1=Gscheidmeier |first1=Manfred |last2=Fleig |first2=Helmut |isbn=3527306730 }}</ref> Pinenes are also found in many non-coniferous [[plant]]s such as camphorweed (''[[Heterotheca]]'')<ref>{{Cite journal|vauthors=Lincoln DE, Lawrence BM|date=1984|title=The Volatile Constituents of Camphorweed, ''Heterotheca subaxillaris''|journal=Phytochemistry|volume=23|issue=4|pages=933–934|doi=10.1016/S0031-9422(00)85073-6}}</ref> and big sagebrush (''[[Artemisia tridentata]]'').

α-Pinene and β-pinene are both produced from [[geranyl pyrophosphate]], via cyclisation of [[linalool|linaloyl]] pyrophosphate followed by loss of a proton from the carbocation equivalent. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Joint BioEnergy Institute have been able to synthetically produce pinene with a bacterium.<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|vauthors=Sarria S, Wong B, Martín HG, Keasling JD, Peralta-Yahya P|date=2014|title=Microbial Synthesis of Pinene|journal=ACS Synthetic Biology|volume=3|issue=7|pages=466–475|doi=10.1021/sb4001382|pmid=24679043|doi-access=free}}{{open access}}</ref>
