Unsaturated ketones ( 4 and 10 ) and epoxides ( 2–3 and 8–9 ) were the main products of biotransformation performed by means of Zoophthora (Neopandora) phyllobii. Enantiospecificity of both reactions leading to these compounds strongly depends on the distance of reacting fragment of molecule from the chiral center at C‐1′.
