Biosynthesis of providencin: Understanding photochemical cyclobutane formation with density functional theory
The unique structure of furanocembranoid natural product providencin has stimulated biosynthetic hypotheses, especially concerning the formation of its cyclobutanol ring. One such hypothesis involves a photochemically induced Norrish–Yang cyclization in bipinnatin E. We have used computations to ass...
