Fluorene, dibenzofuran, dibenzothiophene, and carbazole are structural analogs differing only in the type of atom bridging the two aromatic rings. These compounds are constituents of fossil fuels. The authors have examined the oxidation of fluorene, dibenzofuran, and dibenzothiophene by mutant and recombinant strains which express NDO from Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIB 9816-4 and reports the yields, region chemistry, absolute stereochemistry, and enantiomeric purity of the isolated initial metabolites. 71 refs., 3 figs., 2 tabs.
