Hydroxylated Gedunin Derivatives from Cedrela sinensis
摘要:
Four new limonoids, 11 alpha-hydroxygedunin ( 1), 11 beta-hydroxygedunin (2), 7-deacetoxy-7 alpha,11 alpha-dihydroxygedunin ( 3), and 7-deacetoxy-7 alpha, 11 beta-dihydroxygedunin (4), were isolated from the cortex of Cedrela sinensis, together with three known compounds, gedunin ( 5), 7-deacetoxy-7 alpha-hydroxygedunin ( 6), and 11-oxogedunin ( 7). The structures of 1-4 were determined by a combination of 2D NMR experiments and chemical methods and by X-ray crystallography of 1 and 2.
Whole-Cell Mediated 11β-Hydroxylation on the Basic Limonoid Skeleton by Cunninghamella echinulata
摘要:
Regio- and stereoselective 11 beta-hydroxylation was achieved on the basic limonoid skeleton through microbial transformation. Whole cells of Cunninghamella echinulata efficiently converted basic limonoids such as epoxyazadiradione, azadiradione, and gedunin to their 11 beta-hydroxy analogues as the sole metabolite. Fermentation conditions affecting the efficiency (96%) of biotransformation including substrate concentration, incubation period, pH, and temperature were optimized. The position and stereochemistry of hydroxyl functionality on the isolated metabolites were established through extensive spectroscopic and spectrometric studies (1D, 2D NMR, ESI-MS, and MS/MS).
