Cultures of the ligninolytic fungus Irpex lacteus incubated in a nutrient liquid medium degraded more than 70% of the initially applied benz[a]anthracene within 14 days. At the first step of metabolization, benz[a]anthracene was transformed via a typical pathway of ligninolytic fungi to benz[a]anthracene-7,12-dione (BaAQ). The product was further transformed by at least two ways, whereas one is...

A one pot domino protocol for an efficient synthesis of 7-arylbenzo[c]acridine-5,6-diones, with a novel nucleus, has been developed by reacting 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione, aromatic aldehydes and aromatic amines using environmentally benevolent p-toluene sulphonic acid as a catalyst. An exciting feature of this communication is the reaction mechanism that depends on the reaction solvent.
