Synthesis of p -coumaroylquinic acids and analysis of their interconversion
摘要:
The synthesis of four isomers of p-coumaroylquinic acids was performed by esterification of p-acetylcoumaroylchloride with a suitably protected (-)-quinic acid. All isomers have been characterized by means of NMR spectroscopy and circular dichroism. Acyl migration was observed in the synthesis of 3-0-p-coumaroylquinic acid and 4-O-p-coumaroylquinic acid. Calculations on the most stable conformations of all isomers have also been performed to explain the acyl migration observed during the synthesis procedure. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
