“…Tetronasin has been evaluated as a growth accelerator for cattle and as an antiparasitic agent. 3,4 The first and only total syntheses of Tetronomycin 5 and Tetronasin [6][7][8] were reported by Yoshii and co-workers in 1992 and 1993, respectively. Markworthy features of these syntheses include: (a) a ZrCl 4 -catalysed insertion of an a-diazoester into the C-H of an aldehyde to generate a key b-keto ester intermediate required for the construction of the tetronic acid moiety, and (b) a reductive cyclisation that creates the cyclohexane ring with high diastereoselectivity.…”
S y n t h e s i s o f t h e C 1 4 -C 2 8 F r a g m e n t o f T e t r o n a s i nAbstract: A synthesis of the C14-C28 fragment of Tetronasin features an S E 2 reaction between a cationic h 3 -allylmolybdenum complex and and an a-metallated tetrahydrofuran.
Studies towards the synthesis and biosynthesis of tetronasin, an acyltetronic acid ionophore are described, together with an account of some novel methodology which is more widely applicable for the synthesis of other acyltetronic acids.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
