title: Stereochemistry of decarboxylation of trans-4-hydroxycinnamic acid by Aerobacter.
abstract: The stereochemistry of the decarboxylation of trans-p-coumaric acid to 4-hydroxystyrene by Aerobacter aerogenes has been examined. The decarboxylation has been found to proceed with retention of the geometry about the trans-substituted double-bond.
