AbstractMain conclusionA novel terpene synthase (Tps) gene isolated fromCamellia brevistylawas identified as hedycaryol synthase, which was shown to be expressed specifically in flowers. Camellia plants are very popular because they bloom in winter when other plants seldom flower. Many ornamental cultivars of Camellia have been bred mainly in Japan, although the fragrance of their flowers has not been studied

The biotransformation of the synthetic (E,E)-1,5-cyclodecadienol 5 and (+)-hedycaryol (11) by a root suspension of fresh chicory has been investigated. Incubation of 5 with a root suspension gave a 2 : 1 mixture of the epimeric eudesmanediols 7a and 7b whereas 11 was selectively converted into cryptomeridiol (12). An explanation for the obtained results is proposed.

Starting from the readily available (−)-guaiol the germacrane sesquiterpene (+)-hedycaryol can be synthesized in a 7 steps reaction sequence in an overall yield of 16%. Additionally, (+)-γ-eudesmol has been synthesized, also starting from (−)-guaiol.
