Abstract

Aspergillus alliaceus UI 315 was examined for its ability to metabolize 3-methoxy-17 beta-estradiol. Preparative-scale incubations with this substrate afforded good yields of 6 beta-hydroxy-17 beta-estradiol, 4-hydroxy-17 beta-estradiol, and 4,6 beta-dihydroxy-17 beta-estradiol, which were identified by high-pressure liquid chromatography, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, and high-resolution mass spectrometry.
