Quinolone-containing natural products are widely found in bacteria, fungi, and plants. The fungal quinolactacins, which are N-methyl-4-quinolones, display a wide spectrum of biological activities. Here we uncovered a concise nonribosomal peptide synthetase pathway involved in quinolactacin A biosynthesis from Penicillium by using heterologous reconstitution and in vitro enzymatic synthesis. The N-desmethyl analog of quinolactacin A was accessed through the construction of a hybrid bacterial and fungi pathway in the heterologous host.

β-Ketocarboxylic acids including β-ketoglutaric acid half-esters were cyclized by treating them with 1,1'-carbonyl-diimidazole to give 6-substituted 3-acyl-4-hydroxy-2-pyrones in good yields. 5-Aryl-3,5-dioxo-1-pentanoic acid and monomethyl malonate gave 6-aryl-4-hydroxy-2-pyrone and dimethyl β-ketoglutarate, respectively, on similar treatment.Anibin, one of the Aniba alkaloids, was synthesized from 5-(3-pyridyl)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrone.In addition, it was confirmed that reaction of magnesium β-ketocarboxylate with acylimidazolide gave the corresponding acyclic β-diketone in excellent yield.Keywords - β-ketocarboxilic acid; biogenetic-type synthesis; 4-hydroxy-2-pyrone; β-polyketide; β-ketoglutaric acid; dehydroacetic acid; anibin; Aniba alkaloid; 3-acyl-4-hydroxy-2-pyrone; β-diketone.
