The reduction of 3-methyl-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one and its phenyl-substituted derivatives by microorganisms was investigated. Growing cells of Mortierella isabellina DSM1414 and Geotrichumcandidum LOCK 105 strains reduced α,β-unsaturated ketones to the corresponding secondary alcohols in high enantiomeric excess (94–99%), whereas the Rhodotorula rubra M18D3 strain converted the same compounds into optically
