synthesis
the enzyme is useful, together with menthone:(+)-neomenthol reductase (EC 1.1.1.208), for production of (1R,2S,5R)-(-)-menthol and (1S,2S,5R)-(+)-neomenthol from pulegone, development of a one-pot synthesis method, overview. Menthol isomers, (1R,2S,5R)-(-)-menthol, (1R,2S,5S)-(+)-isomenthol, (1S,2S,5R)-(+)-neomenthol, and (1R,2R,5R)-(+)-neoisomenthol, and carvone are used as additives in oral hygiene products and flavors in food and beverages, or cosmetics
