Klíčová slova: Solanum aviculare, Rheum palmatum, plant cell culture, 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)-cyclopentanone, 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)cyclopentanol, glucoside, enantiomeric purity
Abstrakt: The ability of plant cells cultivated in vitro synthesized and biotransformed substances of natural and synthetic origin are known for a long time. The biotransformation of 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1-cycloalkanone skeleton was studied. Its knowledge is important for two reasons, partly for ease of enzymatic synthesis juvenogens and to better understand the mechanism of action of the dicyclic juvenoids. Results obtained show that cultured rhubarb (Rheum palmatum L.) and Kangaroo Apple (Solanum aviculare Forst.) plant cells were able to be efficiently convert 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1-cyclo-pentanones to its glucosides via corresponding alcohols.
