- ). We presume that an initially formed nitrone 22 probably undergoes base induced epimerization to generate the thermodynamically more stable trans-substituted nitrone 21. As shown below, the nitrone moiety of 21 can be regarded as a masked hydroxylamine, however, it should also be very useful for

- peptide-coupling reaction of the all-S linear tetrapeptide. As discussed above, one of the two diastereoisomers is probably the outcome of the epimerization reaction experienced by the stereogenic center in the α-position with respect to the carboxylic group undergoing activation. Likewise, the two minor

Figure 4b depicts the HPLC chromatogram obtained from the analysis of the purified

- effective and convenient method to prepare hexabromide 3. Most of the product precipitated during the reaction. After the reaction, a rapid and simple recrystallization gave the pure hexabromide 3 in 95% yield. As hexabromide 4 is quite sensitive to daylight and temperature, aromatization and epimerization

The vinyl ether 10 was then converted to a ketal in order to preclude any epimerization occurring at C-4, and this was achieved by subjecting 10 to bromine in the presence of methanol to give

- 02138, USA Department of Pharmacology, Temple University, 3420 N. Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19140, USA 10.1186/1860-5397-3-1 Abstract There have been many reports of epimerization of salvinorins at C-8 under basic conditions, but little evidence has been presented to establish the structure of
- these compounds. We report here the first crystal structure of an 8-epi-salvinorin or derivative: the title compound, 2b. The lactone adopts a boat conformation with the furan equatorial. Several lines of evidence suggest that epimerization proceeds via enolization of the lactone rather than a
- -salvinorin A (1b).[12] Brown also reported that deacetylation of 1a under basic conditions gave 8-epi-salvinorin B (2b), but did not characterize either compound. Several further reports of epimerization at C-8 appeared over the following decade, [13][14] but no characterization data was presented. Valdés
