The stereochemistry in the reduction of the C-C double bond adjacent to the carbonyl group with the cultured cells of Nicotiana tabacum was investigated by feeding (4R)--(-)-carvone to the cultured cells.It was found that the hydrogen attack to the C-C double bond takes place stereospecifically from the si-face at C-1 and the re-face at C-6, being trans-addition.

(S)- and (R)-[6-2H]Carvones and (S)- and (R)-[2-2H]limonenes, nonradioactive tracers for the studies on the biosynthesis and metabolism of monoterpenoids in higher plants, were synthesized from (R)- and (S)-carvones by regioselective deuteration via a convenient route with highly enantiomeric purity.
