✦ Synopsis
In relation to the mechanism of fatty acid synthetase inhibition by cerulenin (1) the reaction between this antibiotic and thiols were studied. The structures of the propanethiol adduct 2 and of the cysteine methyl ester adduct 3 were determined to be respective (2S, 3R)-2Ialkylmercapto-3-hydroxy derivatives forming the hydroxylactam structures in their b-oxo-amide moiety. An antibiotic cerulenin, (2R, 3S)-2,3-epoxy-4-oxo-7,lO-~rar1~, trans-dodecadienamide (L),
