Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    The reduction of the antibiotic abikoviromycin by complex metal hydrides and its hydrogenation in the presence of various catalysts have been studied.

  2. 2.

    It has been established that abikoviromycin is 5-ethylidene-4,4a-epoxy-2,3,4,4a-tetrahydro-5H-1-pyrindine and has the (4S, 4aR, 5-1′E) configuration.
