Abstract
The microbial transformations by Glomerella cingulata of two saturated acyclic monoterpenoids, tetrahydrogeraniol (1) and tetrahydrolavandul ol (3), were investigated. Both compounds were hydroxylated regioselec tively at the isopropyl group. Tetrahydrogeraniol was transformed to h ydroxycitronellol (2), while tetrahydrolavandulol was transformed to 5 -hydroxytetrahydrolavandulol (4). This is the first report describing the microbial transformation of compounds 1 and 3.
