Four isomers of 3'-hydroxy-gamma-ionylideneacetic acid were isolated from Cercospora cruenta cultures. The ratio of isomers was found to be 44:24:21:11 for (2Z,4E)-(1'S,3'S)-, (2Z,4E)-(1'S,3'R)-, (2E,4E)-(1'S,3'S)- and (2E,4E)-(1'S,3'R)-3'-hydroxy-gamma-acid, respectively. Feeding experiments with [C-14] labelled (2Z, 4E)-(1'S, 3'S)-3'-hydroxy-gamma-acid showed high incorporation into 1',3'-dihydroxy-gamma-acid and 1'-hydroxy-3'-oxo-gamma-acid, but not into 4'-hydroxy-gamma-acids. This result suggested that 3'-hydroxy-gamma-acids were not involved in the ABA biosynthetic pathway. The biological activities of these new metabolites were compared with those of known ABA biosynthetic intermediates.
