Mechanism Of Abietadiene Synthase Catalysis: Stereochemistry And Stabilization Of The Cryptic Pimarenyl Carbocation Intermediates, Reuben J. Peters, Matthew M. Ravn, Robert M. Coates, Rodney Croteau
Reuben J. Peters
Abietadiene synthase (AS) catalyzes the complex cyclization-rearrangement of (E,E,E)-geranylgeranyl diphosphate (8, GGPP) to a mixture of abietadiene (1a), double bond isomers 2a-4a and pimaradienes 5a-7a as a key step in the biosynthesis of the abietane resin acid constituents (1b-4b) of conifer oleoresin. The reaction proceeds at two active sites by way of the intermediate, copalyl diphosphate (9). In the second site, a putative tricyclic pimaradiene or pimarenyl(+) carbocation intermediate of undefined C13 stereochemistry and annular double bond position is formed. Three 8-oxy-17-nor analogues of 9 (17 and 19a,b) and three isomeric 15,16-bisnorpimarenyl-N-methylamines (26a-c) were synthesized and evaluated as alternative substrates …
