Abstract
Substituted methyl benzoates are biotransformed in the fungus Phellinus ribis by enzyme-catalysed epoxidation to yield an isolable benzene oxide and transient benzene oxides, whose presence was inferred from isomerisation to the corresponding methyl salicylates with concomitant migration of the carbomethoxy group.
