Transformation of aromatic compounds under the action of the basidiomycetesPhanerochaete sanguinea andCoriolus villosus

The pathways of the transformation of some aromatic compounds by rhe basidiomycetesPhanerochaete sanguinea andCoriolus villosus have been studied. It has been shown that the degradation of these compounds has an oxidative nature and depends on the type of substituents in the benzene ring and the propane chain. A difference has been found in the mechanisms of the reactions of the two fungi that is a consequence of the different compositions of their enzyme complexes.Wood Chemistry Division, Institute of Organic Chemistry, Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Irkutsk.
