A new enzyme mediated protocol to access versatile chiral building blocks for the synthesis of epoxyquinone natural products is delineated. Total syntheses of (-)-phyllostine, (+)-epoxydon, (+)-epiepoxydon and (-)-panepophenanthrin have been accomplished to demonstrate the efficacy of this approach.
