Screening of plant cell cultures for their capacity to dimerize eugenol and isoeugenol: Preparation of dehydrodieugenol

Nine plant cell cultures were used to catalyze the oxidative coupling reaction of eugenol and isoeugenol. All the evaluated plant cell cultures carried out the oxidative reaction. The calli of Medicago sativa and the cell suspension of Coriandrum sativum produced the highest yield of dehydrodieugenol.
