Abstract
The biotransformation of (+/-)-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,6-dione by Asper gillus niger and Glomerella cingulara was investigated. The diketone w as reduced to the ketoalcohol 2-endo-hydroxy-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-6-on e and the diol endo,endo-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,6-diol respectively. E ndo,endo-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,6-diol and ketoalcohols produced by G. cingulata had high optical purity, on the other hand, reduction by A. niger yielded optically active (-)-(1R, 2S, 5R, 6S)-bicyclo[3.3.1]non ane-2,6-diol(99.9% e.e.).
