Biocatalytic Synthesis of Diamondoid Diols by the Brown‐Rot Fungus Wolfiporia cocos
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 3, 12 February 2026.Wolfiporia cocos cultures were tested for CH‐oxidative activity using rigid diamondoid substrates. Adamantane derivatives gave typical diols similar to known chemical oxidations, while diamantane‐4‐ol showed unusual selectivity, forming rare 4,9‐ and 1,9‐diols.
