Young roots of wheat, barley, and sorghum, as well as methyl jasmonate pretreated rice seedlings, undergo an unprecedented allene oxide synthase pathway targeted to previously unknown oxylipins 1–3. These Favorskii-type products, (4Z)-2-pentyl-4-tridecene-1,13-dioic acid (1), (2′Z)-2-(2′-octenyl)-decane-1,10-dioic acid (2), and (2′Z,5′Z)-2-(2′,5′-octadienyl)-decane-1,10-dioic acid (3), have a carboxy function at the side chain, as revealed by their MS and NMR spectral data. Compounds 1–3 were the major oxylipins detected, along with the related α-ketols. Products 1–3 were biosynthesized from (9Z,11E,13S)-13-hydroperoxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid, (9S,10E,12Z)-9-hydroperoxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acid (9-HPOD), and (9S,10E,12Z,15Z)-9-hydroperoxy-10,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid, respectively, via the corresponding allene oxides and cyclopropanones. The data indicate that conversion of the allene oxide into the cyclopropanone is controlled by soluble cyclase. The short-lived cyclopropanones are hydrolyzed to products 1–3. The collective name “graminoxins” has been ascribed to oxylipins 1–3.

Incubations of linoleic acid with cell-free preparations from Lily-of-the-Valley (Convallaria majalis L., Ruscaceae) roots revealed the presence of 13-lipoxygenase and divinyl ether synthase (DES) activities. Exogenous linoleic acid was metabolized predominantly into (9Z,11E,1′E)-12-(1′-hexenyloxy)-9,11-dodecadienoic (etheroleic) acid. Its identification was confirmed by the data of ultraviolet spectroscopy, mass spectra, 1H NMR, COSY, catalytic hydrogenation. The isomeric divinyl ether (8E,1′E,3′Z)-12-(1′,3′-nonadienyloxy)-8-nonenoic (colneleic) acid was detected as a minor product. Incubations with linoleic acid hydroperoxides revealed that 13-hydroperoxide was a preferential substrate, while the 9-hydroperoxide was utilized with lesser efficiency.

Hydroperoxides produced by oxidation of linoleic acid with purified eggplant lipoxygenase were separated by TLC and analysed by IR spectroscopy. The methyl hydroxystearates from the enzymatically produced hydroperoxides were analysed by MS and GLC. Both analyses indicated that the eggplant enzyme converted linoleic acid almost exclusively (96%) into the 13-hydroperoxy isomer whereas the 9-hydroperoxy isomer was only a minor product (4%). HPLC of the methyl ester of the isolated hydroperoxides showed three components. Each component was collected, reduced to methyl hydroxystearate and characterized by GLC, MS and IR analysis. The components were identified as 13-hydroperoxy cis-trans isomer (92.8%), 13-hydroperoxy trans-trans isomer (2.6%) and 9-hydroperoxy cis-trans isomer (4.6%). A polar by-product present in the reaction mixture was identified by IR, 1H NMR, and MS (of the toluene-p-sulphonyl derivative) as 13-hydroxy-12-oxo-octadec-cis-9-enoic acid.
