The first synthesis of peramine (1), the major insectfeedingdeterrent isolated from perennial ryegrass infected with the endophytie fungusAcremoniumlolii, is reported.
homologues with hydroxylamine were found to give 4-nitro-5(2H)-isoxazolone. These results were rationalized by double ring transformations in sequence. The fact that the 4-position of the 4-pyridone behaved as an electrophlic site was the first example in this series of ring transfomations, and was caused by the alpha-effect of the reagent. Some reactions of the isoxazolone were carried out.

Michael addition of heterocyclic amines (6), (10), (13) and (17) to nitro-olefin (3) followed by reduction/cyclization of the nitro group of the adduct provides a convenient synthesis of the bicyclic pyrazinones (8), (12), (16), (19) and (20) which are found in several natural products.
The preparation of racemic and optically pure tryptophans is described. The D-enantiomers of the 6-substituted compounds possess a potent sweetening capability. Novel intermediates are also disclosed.
