Production

  Agaritine is synthesized in three ways. The first was performed in 1962 by R.B. Kelly et al. These researchers used as their key step the coupling of the γ-azide of N-carbobenzoxy-L-glutamic acid with α- hydroxy-p-tolylhydrazine . The second way is  by reduction of p-carboxymethylphenylhydrazine with lithium aluminium hydride in situ formation, followed by a pH-neutral workup using a small quantity of saturated sodium chloride as a drying agent. This produced a mixture of compounds. Then, Agaritine was extracted by chromatography. The third way is devised in 1987 by S. Datta and L. Hoesch by joining of p-hydrazinobenzyl alcohol with the 5-carboxy group of L-glutamic acid as its keystone.

Specification

  Agaritine with cas registry number of 2757-90-6 is colorless glistening crystals, called for CCRIS 5459 ; Glutamic acid, 5-(2-(alpha-hydroxy-p-tolyl)hydrazide), L- ; HSDB 4202 ; L-Glutamic acid, 5-(2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl)hydrazide) ; L-Glutamic acid, 5-(2-(alpha-hydroxy-para-tolyl)hydrazide) ; L-Glutamic acid, 5-(2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl)hydrazide) (9CI) ; NCI-C08899 ; beta-N-(gamma-L(+)Glutamyl)4-hydroxymethylphenylhydrazine ; beta-N-(alpha-L-Glutamyl)-4-hydroxymethylphenylhydrazine . Agaritine is totally degraded after 48 hours in aqueous solution with exposure to air and oxidizes rapidly upon storage. Agaritine exists in several mushroom species such as the genera Agaricus, Leucoagaricus, and Macrolepiota. The highest amount of agaritine is found in the cap and gills of the fruiting body, and the lowest in the stem. Agaritine has been shown to induce adenomas and adenocarcinomas in the lungs of mice when administered through drinking water.
