Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/EP94/01792 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 20, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 20, 1996 PCT Filed Jun. 1, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/02062 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 19, 1995The invention is a process for preparing 4-hydroxy-cinnamyl alcohols by enzymatically oxidizing 4-allyl-phenols using vanillyl alcohol oxidase. The oxidase converts eugenol and chavicol to coniferyl alcohol and coumaryl alcohol, respectively. The vanillyl alcohol oxidase may be obtained from Penicillium simplicissimum.
