The diterpene spiroviolene, its diterpene synthase from Streptomyces violens and the experimentally determined terpene cyclisation mechanism were reported in 2017. Recently, the structure of spiroviolene was revised based on a total synthesis, with consequences for the cyclisation mechanism. Herein, a reinvestigation of the terpene cyclisation to spiroviolene and the mass spectrometric fragmentation mechanism investigated by C-labelling experiments are presented.
2017 年报道了二萜螺环维利烯、其来源于浅青紫链霉菌的二萜合酶以及实验确定的萜类环化机制。最近,基于全合成对螺环维利烯的结构进行了修订,这对环化机制有影响。本文通过 C 标记实验重新研究了萜类化合物向螺环维利烯的环化以及质谱碎裂机制。
