The 11-cis enriched photostationary state mixture of retinal trapped in BLG, a water soluble protein, is similar to that of retinal in heptanol.The results, along with those of the lower homologs, are consistend with a model involving specific protein interaction with the cyclohexenyl portion of the substrate and remote protonation of the aldehyde carbonyl group.
Efficient generation of a trisporoid library by combination of synthesis and biotransformation
Schachtschabel, Doreen,Boland, Wilhelm
, p. 1366 - 1372 (2007/10/03)
(Chemical Equation Presented) Trisporic acids and their biosynthetic precursors represent a family of powerful fungal pheromones and morphogenetic factors. A highly flexible synthetic protocol is described that (i) provides rapid access to nonfunctionaliz
Synthesis of 9-cis-retinoic acid and C-20-[3H3C]-9-cis-retinoic acid with high specific activity

The synthesis of 9-cis-retinoic acid starting from 2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone is described. The same methodology was extended for the synthesis of deuterium and tritium labeled 9-cis-retinoic acid with high specific activity (73 Ci/mmol). In this methodology, a Grignard reaction was utilized for introducing three tritium atoms simultaneously in the final synthetic steps.
