The microbial transformations of (+)‐ and (−)‐bornyl acetate were investigated using the plant parasitic fungus, Glomerella cingulata . As a result, (+)‐ and (−)‐bornyl acetate were converted to (+)‐ and (−)‐5‐ exo ‐hydroxybornyl acetate, (+)‐ and (−)‐5‐oxobornyl acetate and (+)‐ and (−)‐borneol respectively. The structures of the metabolic products were determined by spectroscopic data. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry
