Abstract
The hydrolysis of methyl jasmonate with Aspergillus niger and A. carbo narius is shown to be very dependent upon the particular structure of the substrate. Some variation of the side chain at C-2 is tolerated, w hereas the 3-keto group and the methyl ester moieties are particularly important. Porcine pancreatic lipase, Candida lipase, and Rhizopus li pase are unreactive towards butyl jasmonate.
