Stereochemistry of 10-sulfoxidation catalyzed by a soluble Delta9 desaturase

The stereochemistry of castor stearoyl-ACP Delta(9) desaturase-mediated 10-sulfoxidation has been determined. This was accomplished by (19)F NMR analysis of a fluorine-tagged product, 18-fluoro-10-thiastearoyl ACP S-oxide, in combination with a chiral solvating agent, (R)-AMA. Sulfoxidation proceeds...

Zusammenfassung:The stereochemistry of castor stearoyl-ACP Delta(9) desaturase-mediated 10-sulfoxidation has been determined. This was accomplished by (19)F NMR analysis of a fluorine-tagged product, 18-fluoro-10-thiastearoyl ACP S-oxide, in combination with a chiral solvating agent, (R)-AMA. Sulfoxidation proceeds with the same stereoselectivity as hydrogen removal from the parent stearoyl substrate. These data validate the use of thia probes to determine the stereochemistry and cryptoregiochemistry of desaturase-mediated oxidations.
