Transformation of (±)α‐pinene, (±)α‐terpineol, and (±)α‐limonene by Armillariella mellea proceeds enatio‐selectively. (±)α‐Pinene oxidizes (via α‐terpineol) (to (4S)‐ trans ‐sobrerol faster than to (4R)‐isomer. (4R)‐ Trans ‐sobrerol and (4S)‐1,2,8‐ p ‐menthantriol are formed in excess from (±)α‐terpineol, whilst transformation of (±)‐limonene yields an excess of (4R) 8‐ p ‐menthene‐1,2‐diol.
