Catalytic stereoselective desymmetrization of prochiral compounds to valuable chiral molecules is of interest in asymmetric synthesis. Here, we report the development of an efficient biocatalytic desymmetrization strategy for the stereodivergent synthesis of various chiral epoxides and oxazolidinones by the identification and engineering of halohydrin dehalogenases. The use of stereocomplementary halohydrin
