Conformational Analysis of Cycloartenol, 24-Methylenecycloartanol and Their Derivatives

A conformational analysis of cycloartenol, 24-methylenecycloartenol and their derivatives was carried out in the solution and the solid state by an NMR study and X-ray crystallographic analysis, respectively.Complete assignments of the 1H NMR spectra of these compounds were made in order to elucidate the conformation involving the ring system and side chain.Rings A to C had a chair-halfchair-boat conformation, and the side chain had a zig-zag conformation.

BIOSYNTHESIS OF SITOSTEROL, CYCLOARTENOL, AND 24-METHYLENECYCLOARTANOL IN TISSUE CULTURES OF HIGHER PLANTS AND ERGOSTEROL IN YEAST FROM -AND 2H3>-ACETATE AND 2H2>MVA

The -methyl migrations postulated in the 'biogenetic isoprene rule' proposed by Ruzicka et al. have been verified by (13)C n.m.r. spectroscopy in the biosynthesis of cycloartenol (10a), 24-methylenecycloartenol (11a), and sitosterol (12a) using cultured cells of higher plants, Rabdosia japonica and Physalis peruviana, and of ergosterol (14a) in yeast fed with acetate.The -hydride shifts from C-17 to C-20, and C-13 to C-17 have also been demonstrated in the biosynthesis of sitosterol (12b) in R. japonica and of ergosterol (14b) in yeast fed with acetate.THe -hydride shift from C-9 to C-8 has also been verified in 24-methylenecycloartanol (11b) fed acetate to tissue cultures of Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim. var. japonica.In the side-chain formation of 24-methylenecycloartanol (11b) and ergosterol (14b), a -hydride (deuteride) shift from C-24 to C-25 is observed.Conversely, no deuterium atom at C-24 or C-25 is observed in sitosterol (12b) formation.Both C-11 and C-12 of sitosterol (12c) labelled as(13)C-(2)H2 and (13)C-(2)H(1)H, biosynthesized from MVA in R. japonica suggest that squalene is released from an enzyme and the following oxidation does not distinguish a terminal double bond of one farnesyl moiety from the other to form epoxysqualenes (8A) and (8B).
