Abstract
A method for preparing aromatic substances having formula (I), wherein a substrate of formula (II) or an isomer of these precursors, also termed a substrate, in particular selected from those of formula (III), in which formulae R.sub.1 may be a --CH3, --CH2OH, --CHO, --COOH, or (a) radical, R.sub.2 may be a --H, --OH or --O--CH3 radical R.sub.3 may be a --H, --OH or --O--CH3 radical, and R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 may form a methylenedioxy bridge (b), is exposed to the activity of a lipoxygenase. ##STR1##
