Key Points

  • The aim is to establish an integrated framework for the cultivation and application of optically defined borneol.
  • Proposed a source-to-application framework for borneol production from C. camphora and B. balsamifera.
  • Integrated chiral quality control and green extraction methods into a value-chain strategy.
  • Highlighted the importance of chemotype-guided cultivation and low-carbon processing for future applications.
  • Identified C. camphora and B. balsamifera as complementary sources of (+)- and (−)-borneol.
  • Emphasized high-purity borneol as a functional molecule for pharmaceutical, material, and agricultural uses.
  • Future industrial upgrades depend on improved cultivation and processing methods.

Abstract

• An integrated source-to-application framework is proposed for optically defined borneol. • C. camphora and B. balsamifera are positioned as complementary sources of (+)- and (−)-borneol. • Chiral quality control, traceability, and green purification are integrated into a value-chain strategy. • High-purity borneol is highlighted as a functional molecule for pharmaceutical, material, and agricultural applications. • Future industrial upgrading depends on chemotype-guided cultivation, low-carbon processing, and standardisation.
