Abstract
Tritiated derivatives of the toxic sesquiterpene illudin S (1) have be en prepared by fermentation of Omphalotus illudens in the presence of [H-3]-sodium acetate. [H-3]-illudin S was converted to antitumor [H-3] -acylfulvene (4) by treatment with dilute sulfuric acid. Antitumor [C- 14]-hydroxymethylacylfulvene (5) was best prepared by reacting acylful vene with [C-14]-paraformaldehyde in dilute sulfuric acid.
