On the biosynthesis of ethylene: further evidence for stepwise enzymatic cyclopropane ring cleavage

Abstract

The conversion of a series of 2,3-dimethylated 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylates by apple tissues into mixtures of cis- and trans-butenes is reported; the results are in accord with a stepwise enzymatic mechanism of cyclopropane ring opening.
