摘要：

Geranylgeranyl substituted methylquinols are shown to be precursors of tocopherol biosynthesis in spinach chloroplasts as well as phytyl substituted ones. The geranylgeranyl substituted quinols are methylated even to a greater extent than the phytyl substituted ones. The connection to the so far known biosynthetic origin of α-tocopherol is probably -tocotrienol which is hydrogenated to γ-tocopherol and then further methylated to α-tocopherol. © 1979.
