Abstract

Biotransformation of foreign substrates with the suspension cells of Nicotiana tabacum was tested with α-terpineol (I), trans-β-terpineol (II), and trans-β-terpinyl acetate (III). It was found that the cultured cells have the ability to hydroxylate the C–C double bond itself as well as its allylic positions.
