Abstract
Biotransformation of the 7,7'-epoxylignans, (+)-veraguensin, (+)-galbe lgin and galgravin by Aspergillus niger has been investigated. These l ignans were converted to their corresponding 4,4'-O-demethyl derivativ es, (+)-verrucosin, (+)-fragransin A(2) and nectandrin B. Copyright (C ) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
