Two metabolites of HEOD have been isolated by chromatographic techniques, one from the faeces and one from the urine of rats fed for six months on a diet containing HEOD. The molccular formulae of the urinary and faecal metabolites are respectively C 12 H 7 O 2 Cl 5 and C 12 H 8 O 2 Cl 6 . Structural formulae for the two compounds are suggested.
