Isolation, total synthesis and quantification of caffeoylisocitric acid, a characteristic ingredient of the superfood amaranth
摘要:
Amaranth is regarded as a new "super-vegetable" in western countries, albeit it is consumed for centuries in Africa and Asia. In addition to common carotenoids, flavonoids and polyphenols, caffeoylisocitric acid has been described as amaranth type-specific secondary metabolite. Remarkably, nothing is known on biological effects of this specific polyphenol. Here we detail a concise, diastereoselective synthesis of caffeoylisocitric acid, deuterium-labelling studies and a quantitative determination of the caffeoylisocitric acid content of three different amaranth types.

The antifungal natural product citrafungin A was synthesized using, as key steps, an asymmetric aldol reaction of a chiral oxazolidinone, diastereoselective alkylation of a chiral 1,3-dioxolan-2-one, semihydrogenation of an enyne, and selective methyl ester deprotection.
