cis-Cyclopropane fatty acids (cis-CFAs) are widespread constituents of the seed oils of subtropical plants, membrane components of bacteria and protozoa, and the fats and phospholipids of animals. We describe a systematic approach to the synthesis of enan
An Unexpected Reversal of Fluorine Substituent Effects in the Biomethylenation of Two Positional Isomers: A Serendipitous Discovery
Buist, Peter H.,Pon, Robert A.

The mechanism of biological cyclopropyl fatty acid biosynthesis as it occurs in Lactobacillus plantarum has been probed using fluorine substituent effects.It has been shown that the pattern of rate retardations induced by homoallylic fluorine substitution is numerically the same but opposite in sense for two series of olefinic fatty acid substrates bearing the double bond at either the 9- or the 11-position.
