Article Synopsis
- A new method was developed to produce toluene cis glycol using a specific strain of Rhodococcus (MA 7249) lacking certain enzymes.
- The produced toluene cis glycol exhibited optical rotations that confirmed its absolute configuration as (1S,2R).
- When grown in a lab with toluene vapors, MA 7249 achieved a concentration of 18 g/l of toluene cis glycol in about 110 hours and also produced similar dihydrodiols from other compounds.
