Chemical Deoxygenation of the Trichothecenes, Diacetoxyscirpenol and Deoxynivalenol
Colvin, Ernest W.,Cameron, Stuart
, p. 1084 - 1085 (1986)
Based on a model study using the bicyclic epoxides (9) and (10), an efficient one-step procedure for the selective removal of the 12,13-epoxide ring of the trichothecene toxins has been devised.
Trichothecene mycotoxin interconversions: Partial syntheses of calonectrin and deoxynivalenol, and of a trichothecene epi-epoxide, 3α,4β,15-triacetoxy-12,13-epi-epoxytrichothec-9-ene

, p. 887 - 895 (2007/10/02)
The partial syntheses of two trichothecenes, calonectrin (4β,15-diacetoxy-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene) and deoxynivalenol (3α,7α,15-trihydroxy-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene), from a readily available trichothecene, anguidine (4β,15-diacetoxy-3α-hydroxy-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene) are described. In addition, and in order to provide further insight into the mode of action of the trichothecene mycotoxins, 3α,4β,15-tricetoxy-12,13-epi-epoxytrichothec-9-ene, of the first semisynthetic trichothecene epi-epoxides, has been prepared and its X-ray crystal structure determined. In significant contrast to its natural isomer, epi-epoxide proved to be biologically inactive.
Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of a Trichothecene epi-Epoxide, 3α,4β,15-Triacetoxy-12,13-epi-epoxytrichothec-9-ene
Colvin, Ernest W.,Cameron, Stuart
, p. 1642 - 1643 (2007/10/02)
In order to provide additional insight into the mode of action of the trichothecene mycotoxins, one of the first semi-synthetic trichothecene epi-epoxides (8) has been prepared; in dramatic contrast to its natural isomer (9), this compound proved tobe devoid of significant biological activity.
