The synthesis and inhibitory activity against DNA gyrase of a series of diphenic acid monohydroxamides 4a-f are described. A protocol of two biological assays showed conclusively that inhibition occurs specifically at the DNA-DNA gyrase complex and is not attributable to

The ligninolytic fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium oxidized phenanthrene and phenanthrene-9,10-quinone (PQ) at their C-9 and C-10 positions to give a ring-fission product, 2,2'-diphenic acid (DPA), which was identified in chromatographic and isotope dilution experiments. DPA formation from phenanthrene was somewhat greater

Phenanthrene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, was efficiently oxidized by laccase in the presence of both 1-hydroxybenzotriazole and unsaturated lipids. 73% of initially added phenanthrene was degraded within 182 hours to give phenanthrene-9,10-quinone and 2,2'-diphenic acid as the major products. The
