Synthesis and valence isomerization of dienic β-keto esters

A number of dienic β- keto esters was synthesized and it was shown that a labile equilibrium exists in them between the cis-dienones and α-pyrans, and also between the cis- and trans-isomers at the α,β double bond.

Spata-13,17-diene Synthase—An Enzyme with Sesqui-, Di-, and Sesterterpene Synthase Activity from Streptomyces xinghaiensis

A terpene synthase from the marine bacterium Streptomyces xinghaiensis has been characterised, including a full structure elucidation of its products from various substrates and an in-depth investigation of the enzyme mechanism by isotope labelling experiments, metal cofactor variations, and mutation experiments. The results revealed an interesting dependency of Mn2+ catalysis on the presence of Asp-217, a residue that is occupied by a highly conserved Glu in most other bacterial terpene synthases.

Synthesis of derivatives of prenylacetic acids by reactions of alkyl malonate, cyanoacetate, and acetoacetate with alkylating reagents in ionic liquids

A method for the synthesis of carboxylic acid derivatives containing one or two - CH2CHn(Me)CHn+1CH2 - fragments (n = 0, 1) was developed. The method is based on the alkylation of (di)alkyl malonates, cyanoacetates, and acetoacetates with acyclic prenyl halides in ionic liquids, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and tetrafluoroborate. For the ambident ethyl acetoacetate anion, the reactions with prenyl halides devoid of a double bond in the allylic position relative to the halogen atom carried out in the ionic liquids give mixtures of C- and O-alkylation products, while in the case of allylic prenyl halides, only C-alkylation products are formed. The reactions of ethyl 2-geranylmalonate and 2-geranylacetoacetate with bromocyclohexane and 1-chloro-3-dimethylaminopropane in ionic liquids provided derivatives of pharmacologically active geranylacetic acids. The product yields are higher than those in molecular organic solvents. The ionic liquids were recovered and reused in the alkylation.

Alkylation of malonic and acetoacetic esters in an ionic liquid
