A. Hisham et al., EPOXYMURIN-A AND EPOXYMURIN-B, 2 BIOGENETIC PRECURSORS OF ANNONACEOUSACETOGENINS FROM ANNONA-MURICATA, Tetrahedron, 49(31), 1993, pp. 6913-6920
NMR and mass spectroscopic methods have been used for the structure el
ucidation of two new Annonaceous acetogenin precursor compounds, epoxy
murins A and B, isolated from the hexane extract of the stem bark of A
nnona muricata, together with diepomuricanin and solamin. Epoxymurins
A and B provide an important missing link in the proposed biogenetic p
athway for acetogenins containing one tetrahydrofuran ring.
