ChemInform Abstract: Studies on the Biosynthesis of Paraherquamide. Construction of the Amino Acid Framework.

2010

Abstract It has been previously established in this laboratory that the β-methyl-β-hydroxyproline moiety of the potent anthelmintic agent paraherquamide A, is biosynthetically derived from l -isoleucine. The downstream events from l -Ile to paraherquamide A have now been investigated. The synthesis of [1- 13 C]-labeled l -β-methylproline is described by means of a Hoffman–Loeffler–Freytag reaction sequence from [1- 13 C]- l -Ile. This amino acid is shown to be a direct biosynthetic precursor to paraherquamide A by feeding and incorporation experiments in growing cultures of Penicillium fellutanum . Three tryptophan-containing dipeptides of l -β-methylproline have been constructed: [ 13 C 2 …
