SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The stereochemistry of reflexin and conocarpin (from Leucospermum spp.) has been elucidated as 4S,5S,8R,9R,10S, whereas that of leucodrin (from Leucadendron spp.) is 4R,5S,8R,9R,10S. This is in accord with a mechanism of biogenesis suggested for these compounds, as well as with the greater reactivity of one lactone ring in the conocarpin series relative to that in the leucodrin series.
