Метаболический путь

Degradation of chlornitrofen by microorganisms isolated from soils gives rise to the reduction of the nitro group of chlornitrofen to the amino analog, and the successive N-acetylation or N-methylation and the cleavage of the ether linkage are dominant metabolic pathways. The metabolic pathways, however, differ depending on microorganisms and the media. The replacement of the amino group by hydroxyl group, the reduction and successive formylation of p-nitrophenol, and the cleavage of the phenyl ring ultimately to produce CO2 are also observed.
