    Abstract

    The epoxyquinol derivatives (-)-bromoxone acetate (ent-1) and (-)-tricholomenyn A (2) have been prepared from the cis-1,2-dihydrocatechols 3 and 4, respectively. Compounds 3 and 4 are themselves obtained in enantiomerically pure form through the whole-cell biotransformation of the corresponding halobenzene.
