To examine the effect of the minor abscisic acid (ABA) metabolite 7′-hydroxy-ABA on Arabidopsis ABA 8′-hydroxylase (CYP707A3), we developed a novel and facile, four-step synthesis of 7′-hydroxy-ABA from α-ionone. Structural analogues of 7′-hydroxy-ABA, 1′

An 8′,8′,8′-trideuterated analog of abscisic acid (ABA) was diastereoselectively synthesized as a new analog of ABA that is resistant to 8′-hydroxylation, the first metabolic reaction of ABA, owing to the primary kinetic isotope effect. (+)-8′,8′,8′-Trideutero-ABA showed long-term activity in the rice elongation assay. The rate of metabolism of this analog in rice cell suspension culture was about two fold slower than that of (+)-ABA. The concentration of 8′,8′-dideuterophaseic acid produced was about 1/3 that of phaseic acid converted from (+)-ABA. This result indicated that the long-lasting activity of the (+)-trideutero-ABA in the rice assay was the result of the delayed 8′-hydroxylation as expected.

A total synthesis of 7'-hydroxyabscisic acid (1), a putative metabolite of the plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA), is described.The key intermediate in the twelve step synthesis is 2-t-butyldimethylsiloxymethyl-4,4-ethylenedioxy-6,6-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (5) which contains the desired masked hydroxyl group at the C-7'position of ABA.The final transformation in the synthesis, the hydrolysis of the methyl ester of 1 is readily accomplished with porcine liver esterase.Optically pure (+)- and (-)-forms of 1 are obtained by resolution of the silyl ether methyl ester by HPLC on a chiral column.
