Abstract
Fusarium solani and Chaetomium globosum isolated from soil by enrichment techniques metabolized butachlor [2‐chloro‐2’,6'‐diethyl‐N‐(butoxymethyl) acetanilide] in the mineral salt solution. Whereas F. solani transformed butachlor into six metabolites, C. globosum formed four products. Out of these, several were new metabolites which were not reported earlier by F. solani, C. globosum or M. sufui. The structures of the metabolites were generally characterized by GC‐MS. The metabolism of this herbicide involved dechlorination, hydrolysis, dehydrogenation, N‐dealkylation, O‐dealkylation, C‐dealkylation and cyclization.
