Abstract
Cholesterol-4-C 14 and Δ 4-cholesten-3-one-4-C 14 were incubated with leaves from Solanum tuberosum in an aqueous medium. Radioactive transformation products were studied by thin-layer chromatography and microchemical reactions. One of the major transformation products of cholesterol was shown to be Δ 4-cholesten-3-one. One product of radioactive Δ 4-cholesten-3-one incubation has been identified as cholestan-3β-ol, and on the basis of Chromatographic and microchemical evidence, a second product appears to be cholestan-3α-ol.
