Synthesis and absolute configuration of MQ-A3 [1-(14′-methylhexadecanoyl) pyrrolidine], a novel aliphatic pyrrolidine amide from the tropical convolvulaceous species

A novel pyrrolidine amide (MQ-A3) isolated from the tropical convolvulaceous species was synthesized in 5 steps by starting from commercially available 12-bromododecanol and (S)-2-methylbulylbromide. The absolute configuration of the natural product was confirmed by a comparison of the specific rotation values.

Chiral discrimination of branched-chain fatty acids by reversed-phase HPLC after labeling with a chiral fluorescent conversion reagent

Anteiso fatty acids having 16 to 29 carbon atoms were labeled with the chiral fluorescent conversion reagents, (1R,2R)- and (1S,2S)-2-(2,3- anthracenedicarboximido)-cyclohexanol. The diastereomeric esters of anteiso acids having up to 20 carbon atoms were
