＇Green note＇ aldehydes were successfully reduced into their corresponding alcohol by commercial yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. Among different yeasts tested for their ability to convert (Z)-3-hexenal into (Z)-3-hexenol, Pichia anomala gave the best results. Conversion yields higher than 90% were also obtained by directly conducting the reaction in the medium where (Z)-3-hexenal is produced by the action of lipoxygenase and hydroperoxide lyase on linolenic acid.
