| Abstract: | In the course of investigation of p-menthane-utilizing microorganism, it was found that a strain assumed as the genus Pseudomonas produced p-menthan-1-ol from p-menthane into the medium.The microbial formation of p-menthan-1-ol and its chemical properties are described. The configuration of p-menthan-1-ol was identified to be cis-form by chemical synthesis. |
