Biosynthesis of chloroplastidic and extrachloroplastidic terpenoids in liverwort cultured cells: 13C serine as a probe of terpene biosynthesis via mevalonate and non-mevalonate pathways

Two terpenoid biosynthetic pathways, the mevalonate and non-mevalonate (glyceraldehyde phosphatepyruvate) routes, were examined by feeding 13C-labeled serines ([1-13C]- and [3-13C]-) to the cultured cells of the liverwort, Heteroscyphus planus. The labeling patterns observed in the isoprenoid unit of the biosynthetically 13C-labeled stigmasterol corresponded to those expected from the mevalonate pathway, while those of the phytyl side chain corresponded to those from the non-mevalonate pathway. Thus, serine is a potential probe to determine the origin of terpenoid biosynthesis, in either the mevalonate or non-mevalonate pathway.

Chemical constituents of aquatic fern Azolla nilotica

Two new components, (24R)-6β-hydroxy-24-ethyl-cholest-4-en-3-one and phytyl-3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-2-hexadecanenate were isolated from the whole plants of aquatic fern Azolla nilotica. Their structures were established by spectroscopic techniques and chemical correlation. Some typical triterpenoids of ferns were also detected.

SELECTIVE REDUCTION OF THE DISTANT DOUBLE BOND(S) IN GERANYL, FARNESYL AND GERANYL GERANYL DERIVATIVES.

Selective addition of hydrogen chloride on the non-proximal double bond(s) of the title compounds followed by hydrogenolysis led to selective hydrogenation of these double bond(s).
