Abstract
The baker's yeast mediated reduction of the unsaturated carbonyl compo unds (4) under bar, (5) under bar and (6) under bar has been studied i n the context of the generation of the natural forms of the flavour ma terials (1) under bar, (2) under bar and (3) under bar. The stereochem ical aspects of these processes and of those regarding the reduction o f the structurally related enones <(18)under bar>, <(19)under bar>, <( 30)under bar>, <(31)under bar> and ($) under bar have been elucidated also by means of deuterium labeling experiments.
