(E)-1-Hydroxy-2-methyl-but-2-enyl 4-diphosphate (E-6) was synthesized in six reaction steps from hydroxyacetone (9) and (ethoxycarbonylmethenyl)-triphenylphosphorane (11) with an overall yield of 38%. The compound was shown to be identical with the product of IspG protein, which serves as an intermediate in the nonmevalonate terpene biosynthetic pathway.
A convenient synthesis of (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-butenyl pyrophosphate and its [4-13C]-labeled form

The synthesis of (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-butenyl pyrophosphate, an intermediate in the deoxyxylulose pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis, was accomplished by pyrophosphorylation of (E)-4-chloro-2-methyl-2-buten-1-ol. This route enables convenient access to isotopically labeled products, as demonstrated through the preparation of [4-13C]-(E)-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-butenyl pyrophosphate in 28% overall yield from [1-13C]-2-bromopropionic acid.
Synthesis of (2E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate, a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids

The synthesis of (2E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate (HMBPP) was described by regioselective hydroxylation and diphosphorylation of dimethylallyl alcohol. The synthesis started from commercially available 3-methylbut-2-en-1-ol. The 1-alcohol function of starting material was converted to the acetate by treatment with pyridine acetic anhydride. Selective allylic hydroxylation was achieved using selenium dioxide and tert-butyl hydro-peroxide.
