Enantiospecific Synthesis of (-)-5-epi-Shikimic Acid and (-)-Shikimic Acid. -The key step in the synthesis of the title compounds (XI) and (XVI) is the intramolecular cycloaddition of the nitrones (V) and (XIV). -
## Analogues of 3-dehydroshikimic acid which lack the C-4 and C-5 hydroxyl groups have been synthesised and assayed as substrates for shikimate dehydrogenase. The presence of the C-4 hydroxyl group is found to be very important for specificity, whereas the C-5 hydroxyl group is not. The enzyme exh
