Dibromobenzenes (o-, m-, and p-isomers) were converted to the corresponding cis-cyclohexadiene diols by whole-cell fermentation with Escherichia coli JM 109 (pDTG601A), an organism over-expressing the enzyme toluene dioxygenase (TDO). Absolute stereochemi

The oxidation of a range of cyclic allylic alcohols and amides with OsO4/TMEDA is presented. Under these conditions, hydrogen bonding control leads to the (contrasteric) formation of the syn isomer in almost every example that was examined. Evidence for the bidentate binding of TMEDA to OsO4 is presented and a plausible mechanism described.
