Biosynthesis of the diterpene antibiotic, aphidicolin, by radioisotope and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance methods

Abstract

Spectroscopic and degradative methods with 1,2-13C2-acetate and 2-14C-4R-3H-mevalonate precursors show that aphidicolin arises from initial chair-boat cyclization of the diterpene chain followed by successive H-shift, cyclization, and rearrangement steps.
