Natural euphoractane and myrsinane diterpene skeletons, together with an unnatural 5/7/7/4 fused-ring diterpene skeleton were furnished via BF·EtO-mediated transformation of lathyrane-type diterpene, Euphorbia factor L1. The skeleton transformation process was mainly involved in the cascade oxirane-opening (cyclopropane-opening)/oxe-Micheal addition reaction. The structures of three diterpenes were confirmed by comprehensive spectra analysis and single crystals X-ray diffraction. Current results proved the biogenesis pathway between lathyrane with euphoractane and myrsinane by chemical transformation for the first time.
天然 euphoractane 和 myrsinane 二萜骨架,以及一个非天然的 5/7/7/4 稠合环二萜骨架,通过 BF·EtO 介导的 lathyrane 型二萜 Euphorbia factor L1 的转化得到。骨架转化过程主要涉及环氧开环(环丙烷开环)/氧迈克尔加成反应的级联反应。三种二萜的结构通过综合光谱分析和单晶 X 射线衍射确定。目前的结果首次通过化学转化证明了 lathyrane 与 euphoractane 和 myrsinane 之间的生物发生途径。
