Abstract A mutant (TTC1) derived from Pseudomonas fluorescens N3 has been obtained for use in the bioconversion of several naphthalene derivatives to the corresponding optically active cis-dihydrodiols on a milligrams-to-grams scale. All main compounds have been characterized, their relative and absolute configuration assigned, and their enantiomeric purity determined. The regio- and stereoselectivity of the transformation has been established. The procedure therefore represents a valid method for the convenient preparation of a pool of valuable chiral syntons and auxiliaries.
