Concept introduction: The biosynthesis of terpenoids and terpenes are tremendous example to know about the syntheses occur in nature with high yield. The starting materials for their biosynthesis are organic diphosphates; dimethylallyl diphosphate, and isopentenyl diphosphate. These diphosphates contain five carbon atoms with a good leaving group (diphosphate,
