Abstract

Larvae of the leaf beetle Phaedon armoraciae produce the iridoids chrysomelidial 1 and plagiodial 3 from geraniol 6 by an oxidative sequence identical to that known in plants. Following ω-oxidation of geraniol the resulting 8-hydroxygeraniol 7 is oxidised via 8- oxogeraniol 14 and 8-hydroxygeranial 15 and to the dialdehyde 8. In plants this transformation is achieved by NADP+ dependent oxidoreductases. However, in the ...
