(S)-(-)-Limonene (l-Limonene) is a Monoterpenoids,it can induce a mild bronchoconstrictive effect.

Limonene oxide, (-)- is a bioactive chemical.

(+)-trans-Isolimonene, a natural product (monoterpene), is isolated from essential oil.

Perillyl Alcohol is a naturally occurring monoterpene related to limonene with antineoplastic activity. Perillyl alcohol (Isocarveol) inhibits farnesyl transferase and geranylgeranyl transferase, thereby preventing post-translational protein farnesylation and isoprenylation and activation of oncoproteins such as p21-ras, and arresting tumor cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle.
