Zinc-mediated coupling of suitably substituted halogeno esters affords access to (+/-)-retronecic acid (2) and related intermediates.These approaches lead to racemic retronecic acid on the one hand and to a diastereoisomeric mixture of the acid on the other.

Incorporation experiments with isoleucine (1) and 2-aminobutanoic acid , stereospecifically labelled with tritium at C-4 and C-3 respectively, have shown that the ethyl migration step during biosynthesis of isoleucine (1) in Senecio species takes place with retention of configuration.It was also shown that coupling of two molecules of isoleucine (1) to give the ten-carbon necic acids of the senecic (2) type takes place with loss of the C-4 pro-S and retention of the C-4 pro-R hydrogen from both components.A new synthesis of βγ-unsaturated amino-asids has been developed which provides for control of the configuration of the olefinic system.
