Partial Syntheses of Isotopically Labelled Gibberellins

Abstract

The general chemistry of the gibberellins (GAs) has now been reasonably well explored. Most of the current chemical interest is centered on the total or partial synthesis of the GAs. Part of this interest lies in the challenge to synthetic chemists of devising total syntheses of these complex structures. More germane to plant hormonologists is the interest in the acquisition of isotopically labelled GAs for metabolic studies. In our own work we are also interested in the confirmation, by synthesis, of structures deduced for new GAs from GC-MS data, and in the preparation of GA-derivatives in which the positions of hydroxylation are blocked in order to explore the relationship between hydroxylation and biological action. This paper is, however, confined to a discussion of the chemical preparation of isotopically labelled GAs and their precursors for metabolic studies.
