โฆ Synopsis
Clavicipitic acid was obtained by Robbers and Floss' from submerged cultures of Claviceps strain SD-58, to which ill-ethionine had been added to inhibit F-methylation in clavine alkaloid biosynthesis.
Cn mass spectral, n.m.r., and biosynthetic evidence they proposed the structure (I).
Me
We had concurrently obtained the same compound (M+ C,,6H,,8R202, h max 2851~11) from submerged culture, with or without DL-ethionine, of Claviceps fusiformis strain 139/2/1G.2 Clavine alkaloids (mainly agroclavine) were removed from culture filtrate rt p:, X.5 with n-butanol.
A further extract with n-butanol at pri 3.5 was evdporated to small volume St reduced pressure, IXX~G with water (ph 5.0, IC volt.;, filtered and ap,Jlied to a Zeocarb 225
