The research investigates the acid-catalyzed rearrangement of the epoxy coumarin phebalosin to form murralongin, a naturally occurring coumarin with an unusual isoprenoid unit. The study aims to elucidate the structure of murralongin and understand the rearrangement mechanism. Phebalosin was treated with acid and purified through extraction and chromatography to obtain products. The structure of murralongin was revised from the previously proposed structure (vi) to (v) based on NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The key chemicals involved include phebalosin as the starting material, sulfuric acid for the rearrangement reaction, and methanol for the formation of an intermediate methanol adduct. The study concludes that the rearrangement involves the migration of either a vinyl or coumarin skeleton to an adjacent carbon, essential for generating an aldehyde function from the epoxide. The revised structure (v) of murralongin was identified, and the mechanism was proposed to involve ring opening of the epoxide at the carbon atom better able to tolerate positive charge.
