Abstract
Suspension cultured cells of Catharanthus roseus hydroxylate the allylic positions of geraniol, nerol and (+)-and (−)-carvone and reduce double bonds and ketone groups. After incubation for 7 days, the main products of (−)-and (+)-carvone were 5β- hydroxyneodihydrocarveol and 5α-hydroxycarvone, respectively.
