Stereochemical studies on the biosynthesis of viridicatumtoxin: evidence for a 1,3-hydride shift in the formation of the spirobicyclic ring system

Abstract

A study of the fate of the hydrogen atoms in the biosynthesis of viridicatumtoxin using (13C,2H)-labelled mevalonolactones established that a 1,3-hydride shift occurs in the formation of the spirobicyclic ring system.
