Asymmetric epoxidation of digeranyl, which is a squalene analog, with cultured cells of Nicotiana tabacum was investigated. Feeding of [8‐ 3 H]‐digeranyl into the cultured cells of N. tabacum resulted in the formation of (3 S )‐2,3‐epoxydigeranyl and 6,7‐epoxydigeranyl. It was found that the epoxidation of digeranyl with N. tabacum was highly stereoselective. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
