Microbial transformation of 18-hydroxy-9,13-epi-ent-pimara-7,15-diene by Gibberella fujikuroi - Fraga, Braulio M.; González, Pedro; Hernández, Melchor G.; Chamy, María C.; Garbarino, Juan A.
The incubation of the diterpene 18-dihydroxy-9,13-epi-ent-pimara-7,15-diene(3) with the fungus Gibberella fujikuroi gave 14 metabolites, 4 and 6-18. The carbons functionalized were the C-20 methyl and all the secondaries, except C-12. The main reaction observed was the epoxidation of the 7,8-double bond, which rearranged to form 7-keto derivatives, such as 10-17, or the allylic alcohol 18. Compound 9 was the only one obtained in which the 7,8-double bond of the substrate remained unaltered. This work confirms that, in the feeding of this type of diterpene with this fungus, the oxidation at C-19, typical of the biosynthesis of gibberellins from ent-kaur-16-ene. is...

Biotransformation of the diterpenes epicandicandiol and candicandiol by Mucor plumbeus - Fraga, Braulio M.; Alvarez, Alvaro; Suárez, Sergio
The microbiological transformation of the diterpene epicandicandiol (1) with Mucor plumbeus gave foliol (3), sideritinol (5), and 7$, 16$, 17, 18-tetrahydroxy-ent-kaurane (7), while the incubation of candicandiol (2) gave 7$,9$, 18-trihydroxy-ent-kaur-16-ene (10), canditriol (11), and 7$,16$, 17, 18-tetrahydroxy-ent-kaurane (12). Thus, the main difference observed in both feedings, resulting from the spatial change in the orientation of the 7-hydroxyl, from axial in the substrate 1 to equatorial in 2, was the formation of a 3$- and a 9$-hydroxylated derivative, respectively.

Insect antifeedant ryanodane diterpenes from Persea indica - González-Coloma, Azucena; Terrero, David; Perales, Áurea; Escoubas, Pierre; Fraga, Braulio M.
The new ryanodane diterpenes cinnzeylanone, ryanodol 14-monoacetate, and epi-cinnzeylanol have been isolated from Persea indica(Lauraceae). The structure of cinnzeylanone has been determined by X-ray analysis. These compounds proveds to be antifeedants against Spodoptera litura. Cinnzeylanol and ryanodol were the most active antifeedants of this plant, with a range of activity close to that of ryanodine. THis is the first report on the antifeedant effects of this class of diterpenes. Their structure-activity relationships and possible mode of action are discussed.

Iodosobenzene diacetate, an efficient reagent for the oxidative decarboxylation of carboxylic acids - Concepción, José I.; Francisco, Cosme G.; Freire, Raimundo; Hernández, Rosendo; Salazar, José A.; Suárez, Ernesto
The oxidative decarboxylation of organic acids with concomitant replacement by a halogen (halodecarboxylation), through a radical intermediate, in the Hunsdiecker or modified Hunsdiecker reaction comprises an extremely useful and selective procedure for the syntheses of halogenated organic substances. The oxidative elimination of the intermediate radicals to give olefins is an interesting variation of the decarboxylation reaction of acids, which is usually accomplished with lead tetraacetate
(LTA)/Cu(OAc)2.

One-step preparation of the 3,3'-dimer of precocene II - Fraga, Braulio M.; Pérez García, V.
The antijuvenile hormones precocenes I (1) and II (2) have been shown to induce precocious metamorphosis when applied to larval stages of insects. As a consequence of this effect several analogues of both compounds have been synthesized in a search for compounds with better activity. We have prepared several dimers, the most representative being dimers B (3) and C (4), which have been obtained by treatment of precocene II (2) with Lewis acids.

Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of (2R,3R)-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans. Part 2: Effect of side chain homologation - Carrillo Fumero, Romen; León, Leticia G.; Martín, Tomás; Martín, Víctor S.; Padrón, José M.
In this study, we synthesized a series of enantiomerically pure (2R,3R)- and (2R,3S)-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans bearing a CH2O spacer group on the side chain at position 2 of the heterocyclic ring. The in vitro antiproliferative activities of the compounds were examined in the human solid tumor cell lines A2780 (ovarian cancer), SW1573 (non-small cell lung cancer), and WiDr (colon cancer). Overall, the results point out the relevance for antiproliferative activity of the distance between the heterocycle and the unsaturated group.
