What is Review Article Number 135 Biosynthesis in the Rotenoid Group of Natural Products: Applications of Isotope Methodology about?
Using the natural rotenoids rotenone\ amorphigenin\ deguelin\ rotenonic acid\ dalpanol and mundu! serone as examples\ their phytochemical biosynthesis has been examined in Derris elliptica\ Amorpha fruticosa and Tephrosia vo`elii[ The rotenoids are advanced iso~avonoids\ and construction of their angular A:B:C:D! ring systems has been studied experimentally starting out from simple primary metabolites and passing through a series of mainly oxidative phases[ The oxidative reactions of rot!1?!enonic acid which biosynthetically form the E!rings of rotenone\ amorphigenin\ dalpanol and deguelin have been studied in both chemical and stereochemical detail using seedling preparations and the enzyme deguelin cyclase[ This investigation has extensively employed substrates isotopically labelled with 03 C\ 02 C\ 1 H and 2 H and\ particularly in connection with E!ring biosynthesis\ required new approaches to the demanding chemical and stereochemical requirements of the experimentation[
