Mattia, Karen Marie,Ganem, Bruce
, p. 720 - 728 (1994)
As part of a search for mechanistic commonalities uniting the three chorismate-processing enzymes of anthranilate, PABA, and isochorismate biosynthesis,, the title compound 9a, a highly labile allylic isomer of chorismic acid, was prepared by total synthe
