Ordering the reductive and cytochrome P450 oxidative steps in demethylsterigmatocystin formation yields general insights into the biosynthesis of aflatoxin and related fungal metabolites

The biosynthesis of the potent environmental carcinogen aflatoxin B1 involves ca. 15 steps beyond the first polyketide intermediate. Central among these is the rearrangement of the anthraqinone versicolorin A to the xanthone demethylsterigmatocystin. Gene

A Complex Induced Proximity Effect in the Anionic Fries Rearrangement of o-Iodophenyl Benzoates: Synthesis of Dihydro-O-methylsterigmatocystin and Other Xanthones

The success of an anionic Fries rearrangement, used to synthesise dihydro-O-methylsterigmatocystin and other xanthones, is dependent on the presence of a remote methoxyl substituent.
