Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate = (-)-germacrene D + diphosphate action of (-)-germacrene D synthase involves a 1,3-hydride shift. Pro-R-H-1 of the substrate (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate becomes H-11 of (-)-germacrene D, while pro-S-H-1 of (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate becomes H-6 of (-)-germacrene D and H-10 of (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate becomes H-7 of (-)-germacrene D Solidago canadensis
