Abstract
The fungus Rhizopus japonicus converts the herbicide N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)methacrylamide (dicryl) to N-3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-methyl-2,3-dihydroxypropionamide. This metabolite was formed by the addition of two hydroxyl groups to the ethylenic double bond of dicryl. Its structure was elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometric analysis.
