Synthesis of high specific radioactivity 3,5-[3H6]dimethoxy-4-hydroxyacetophenone, an inducing compound of the vir gene in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Abstract: Acetosyringone (3,5‐dimethoxy‐4‐hydroxyacetophenone, 1) is one of the plant signals that induce the vir genes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens which causes crown gall tumours on dicotyledonous plants. Vir gene induction is enhanced by other environmental factors like specific monosaccarides and acidic pH. However, it is still unclear how the inducer interacts with Agrobacterium. To identify the receptor(s) in Agrobacterium tumefaciens to which the plant signal binds, highly radioactive acetosyringone (3,5‐[3H6]dim… Show more

“…29 Tritiated methyl iodide (10) from such a procedure was used for the tritiomethylation of 3¢,5¢-dihydroxy-4¢-isopropoxyacetophenone to generate tritiated 3¢,5¢dimethoxy-4¢-isopropoxy-acetophenone (11) (Scheme 7) with S.A. estimated at 73 Ci/mmol (85% of theoretical maximum S.A.). 30 This compound is one of the plant signals that induce the vir genes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, which causes crown gall tumors on dicotyledonous plants. The tritiated compound was required to aid the identification of the receptors in Agrobacterium tumefaciens to which the plant signal binds, and was consequently required at very high S.A.…”

“…Another application made possible by the availability of LiAlT 4 is the synthesis of tritiated methyl iodide from tritiated methanol, through LiAlT 4 reduction of carbon dioxide [81]. Tritiated methyl iodide from such a procedure was used for the tritiomethylation of 3',5'-dihydroxy-4'-isopropoxyacetophenone to generate tritiated 3',5'-dimethoxy-4'-isopropoxy-acetophenone with specific activity estimated at 73 Ci/mmol (85% of theoretical maximum S.A.) [82]. This compound is one of the plant signals that induce the vir genes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens which causes crown gall tumors on dicotyledonous plants.…”
