STUDIES ON THE MECHANISM OF DEACETOXY DEACETYLCEPHALOSPORIN-C SYNTHASE USING CYCLOPROPYL SUBSTITUTED CEPHALOSPORIN PROBES

Cyclopropyl substituted cephalosporin analogues were prepared and evaluated as substrates for the Fe II/α-ketoglutarate dependent oxygenase, DAOC-DAC synthase; the first example of catalytic product formation from a Cyclopropyl ring cleavage pathway by an α-ketoglutarate dependent oxygenase is repor...

Description
Summary:Cyclopropyl substituted cephalosporin analogues were prepared and evaluated as substrates for the Fe II/α-ketoglutarate dependent oxygenase, DAOC-DAC synthase; the first example of catalytic product formation from a Cyclopropyl ring cleavage pathway by an α-ketoglutarate dependent oxygenase is reported.
