Abstract

Summary The title compounds have been synthesized starting from verrucarol and diacetoxyscripenol (anguidine), (& 2)-muconic half ester and a derivative of ver- rucarinic acid. The latter has been prepared in optically active form from dimethyl 3-methylglu tarate. ... The verrucarins and roridins belong to an important and still growing class of macrocyclic di- and triesters produced by various strains of microorganisms3). Some metabolites are transformed by higher plants to yield ...
