Allomones are widely used by insects to impede predation. Frequently these chemical stimuli are released from specialized glands. The larvae of Chrysomelina leaf beetles produce allomones in gland reservoirs into which the required precursors and also the enzymes are secreted

Salicyl alcohol oxidase is an extracellular enzyme that occurs in glandular reservoirs of chrysomelid leaf beetle larvae and catalyzes the formation of salicylaldehyde, a volatile deterrent used by the larvae against predators. Salicyl alcohol is the hydrolysis product of salicin

The Diels-Alder reactions of o-quinone methides generated from OBOC-salicylic aldehydes and alcohols are described, allowing for the synthesis of various substituted benzopyrans. The low temperatures employed for this procedure enable high diastereoselectivity in reactions with beta-substituted o-quinone methides.

Beta-Salicin is a naturally occurring glycoside found in the bark of poplar and willow trees. Ancient man used it as an analgesic and antipyretic. It has a D-glucopyranose unit attached by a beta-linkage to the phenolic hydroxyl of salicyl alcohol.

Insect biochemistry and molecular biology, 32(11), 1517-1523 (2003-01-18)
Larvae of a number of chrysomelid leaf beetles sequester phenol glucosides such as salicin from their food plants, i.e. Salix and Populus spp. Salicin is hydrolyzed in the glandular reservoir of the defensive glands. The resulting salicyl alcohol (saligenin) is
