The stereochemical course of the biotransformation of 1,2-monoepoxides of 4-vinylcyclohexene (2 and 3) by liver microsomes from control and induced rats and by purified P4502B1 and P4502E1 has been determined. The epoxidation of monoexpodies cis-4-vinylcyclohexene 1,2-epoxide (2) and trans-4-vinylcyclohexene 1,2-epoxide
