Bacteria of the Roseobacter clade are abundant marine bacteria and are important contributors to the global sulfur cycle. The volatiles produced by two of its members, Phaeobacter gallaeciensis and Oceanibulbus indolifex, were analyzed to investigate whether the released compounds are derived from sulfur metabolism, and which biosynthetic pathways are involved in their formation. Both bacteria emitted different sulfides and thioesters, including new natural compounds such as 5-methyl phenylethanethioate (16) and butyl methanesulfonate (21). The S-methyl alkanoates were identified by comparison with standards that were synthesized from the respective methyl alkanoates by a new method using an easily prepared aluminium/sulfur reagent. Phaeobacter gallaeciensis is also able to produce tropone (37) in large amounts. Its biosynthesis was investigated by various feeding experiments, showing that 37 is formed via a deviation of the phenylacetate catabolism. The unstable tropone hydrate 42 was identified as an intermediate of the tropone biosynthesis that was also released together with tropolone (38). The Royal Society of Chemistry 2010.

trans-6-Aminocyclohept-3-enols 18 and ent-18 are new designed polyfunctionalized chiral building blocks for piperidine alkaloids synthesis and are prepared in high yields from the enzymatically derived cyclohept-3-ene-1,6-diol monoacetate (-)-8. Efficient highly enantioselective syntheses of cis-4-hydroxypipecolic acid (1) and piperidines 3 and 4, in both enantiomeric forms, are described. [reaction: see text]
Total synthesis of scopine, pseudoscopine, and nor-derivatives

Scopine and pseudoscopine have been synthesised from cyclohepta-3,5-dienol; the initial 1,4-functionalisation of the diene is based on a nitroso- cycloaddition. The use of the N-benzyloxycarbonyl group throughout the scheme allows ultimate reductive deprotection to yield N-methyl or novel NH (nor-) derivatives without damage to the exo-epoxide of the title compounds. Preliminary investigation of nitroso- cycloaddition to 5,6-epoxycyclohepta-1,3-diene is described.
