Abstract
The white rot fungus
Pleurotus pulmonarius
exhibited metabolism of atrazine (2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylamino-1,3,5-triazine) in liquid culture, producing the dealkylated metabolites desethylatrazine, desisopropylatrazine, and desethyl-desisopropylatrazine. A fourth, unknown metabolite was also produced. It was isolated and was identified as 2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-(1-hydroxyisopropyl)amino-1,3,5-triazine by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, and
1
H nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. The structure of this metabolite was confirmed by chemical synthesis of the compound and comparison with the fungally produced metabolite.
