transformation of enones was investigated with cultured cells of Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 (a cyanobacterium). The cells reduced both the endocyclic C-C double bond of s-trans enones and the exocyclic C-C double bond of s-cis enones with high enantioselectivity to afford optically active α-substituted (S)-ketones under illumination. In addition, the reduction of the double bond of these enones was accompanied
用聚球藻的培养细胞研究了烯酮的不对称转化。PCC 7942(一种蓝细菌)。细胞以高对映选择性减少了 s-trans enones 的内环 CC 双键和 s-cis enones 的外环 CC 双键,以在光照下提供光学活性的 α-取代 (S)-酮。此外,这些烯酮双键的还原伴随着饱和醇的形成。细胞优先将简单的脂肪酮而不是环状酮还原为相应的(S)-醇,具有出色的对映选择性。

A novel 74 kDa enone reductase which catalyzes the reduction of the exocyclic C–C double bond of enones was isolated from cultured cells of Nicotiana tabacum. The reductase was found to catalyze the enantiofacially selective reduction of the C–C double bond of 2-alkylidenecyclohexanone to give optically active (S)-2-alkylcyclohexanone.
An Efficient Procedure for the Preparation of (<i>E</i>)-α-Alkylidenecycloalkanones Mediated by a CeCl<sub>3</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O−NaI System. Novel Methodology for the Synthesis of (<i>S</i>)-(−)-Pulegone<sup>1</sup>
synthons used as the key intermediates in many important syntheses. Because of their potential, a general method of preparation from readily available starting materials, under very mild conditions, was considered to be worthwhile. Cerium(III) chlorideheptahydrate in combination with sodiumiodide in refluxing acetonitrile promotes a regio- and stereoselective beta-elimination reaction to (E)-2-alky
The present invention relates to the perfumery industry. It concerns more particularly an alcohol, ester, ether or ketone derivative having a spiro-type skeleton, the latter being substituted by short alkyl groups. The invention also relates to the use of the invention compounds as perfuming ingredients, able to impart a woody and/or aromatic, as well as to the perfumed articles or perfuming compositions comprising as active ingredient a compound of formula (I).

Three enone reductases, p44, p74, and p90, from the cultured cells of Nicotiana tabacum catalyzed the asymmetric hydrogenation of the C–C double bond of enones. Reduction of 2-alkyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ones with the p44 reductase gave highly optically active (R)-2-alkylcyclohexanones, whereas reaction with the p90 reductase gave (S)-2-alkylcyclohexanones. On the other hand, reduction of 2-alkylidenecyclohexanones with the p74 reductase gave (S)-2-alkylcyclohexanones.
