High-Pressure-Promoted and Facially Selective Diels–Alder Reactions of Enzymatically Derived cis-1,2-Dihydrocatechols and Their Acetonide Derivatives: Enantiodivergent Routes to Homochiral and Polyfunctionalized Bicyclo[2.2.2]octenes

cis-1,2-Dihydrocatechols 5 (X = Me and Cl), which are available in the homochiral form through the whole-cell biotransformation of toluene and chlorobenzene, respectively, undergo Diels–Alder cyclo...
