Abstract

Abstract: Nine analogues of isopentenyl pyrophosphate (1) have been studied as substrates for pig liver farnesylpyrophosphate synthetase.(E)-3-Methylpent-3-enyl pyrophosphate (12) and its 2 isomer 13 react enzymatically with geranyl pyrophosphate (3) to give (S)-(14) and (R)-4-methylfarnesyl pyrophosphate (15), respectively. 12 and 13 also react with dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (2) to give the corresponding enantiomers of 4-methylgeranyl ...
