Trichosporon beigelii SBUG 752 was able to transform diphenyl ether. By TLC, HPLC, GC, GC-MS, NMR- and UV-spectroscopy, several oxidation products were identified. The primary attack was initiated by a monooxygenation step, resulting in the formation of 4-hydroxydiphenyl ether, 2-hydroxydiphenyl ether and 3-hydroxydiphenyl ether (48:47:5). Further oxidation led to 3,4-dihydroxydiphenyl ether. As a characteristic product resulting from the cleavage of an aromatic ring, the lactone of 2-hydroxy-4-phenoxymuconic acid was identified. The possible mechanism of ring cleavage to yield this metabolite is discussed.

Ethyl 5 (4 fluoro α,α dimethylbenzyl) 1,3 benzodioxole 2 carboxylate (11, RMI 14,676) was found to be a potent hypolipidemic agent, while ethyl 5 (1 phenyl 1 cyclopentyl) 1,3 benzodioxole 2 carboxylate (19, RMI 14,654), although less potent, was found to
