Identification of two C-10 demethylated C28 hopanes in biodegraded petroleum

Abstract

Two C-10 demethylated C28 hopanes have been isolated from a biodegraded asphalt and characterised by mass spectrometry and single-crystal X-ray diffraction; their structures reveal a major microbiological pathway of degradation of the widespread hopane triterpene skeleton.
