The biotransformation of (±)-8-acetoxy-p-menth-1-ene (α-terpinyl acetate) with the culturedcells of Nicotianatabacum was found to result in the predominant formation of 8-acetoxy-c-4-p-menthane-r-1,t-2-diol. This experimental result indicates that the hydroxylation of the endocyclic ethylenic linkage with the culturedsuspensioncells is stereospecific.
