Abstract
The azoxy compound lyophyllin (3) is formed in fruit-bodies of the toa dstool Lyophyllum connatum by oxidative condensation of N-hydroxy-N'N' -dimethyiurea (2) with N-methylhydroxylamine (4). The condensing enzym e is remarkably unspecific and transforms a variety of hydroxyureas an d N-alkyl-hydroxylamines into the corresponding lyophyllin analogues 5 . (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
