In order to examine the correlation between the anti-rice blast fungus activity and the chirality of allylic alcohols 1-3, which were characterized from the infected rice plants as an enantiomeric mixture with 10% e.e., a procedure for the chemical prepa

In order to explore the oxidation mode of lipoxygenase (LOX) obtained from infected rice plants, typical unsaturated fatty acids (3-8) were treated with LOX and oxygen. It was observed that ω-10 and ω-6 positions of unsaturated fatty acids were oxidized predominantly in the cases of exotic ω-6 (4 and 5) and ω-3 (7 and 8) series, respectively. In the case of endogenous fatty acids (3 and 6), oxidation at ω-6 position predominated. All the allylic alcohols obtained by reduction of the oxidation products with NaBH4 possess S-configuration.
