โฆ Synopsis
Isolation and. biological activities of new gibberellins A26 and A27 in immature seeds of the Japanese morning-glory (Pharbitis nil) have been reported -
(1). We wish to report here the elucidation of their structures.
Gibberellin A26 (GA26), m.p. 254-257", formed a monomethyl ester (II), m.p. 207-211'. The high resolution mass spectrum of II reveales a parent ion peak at m/e 376.159 with the composition C20H2407 (calcd. 376.152). Therefore GA26 has the molecular formula C19H2207. The significant peaks at M-32 (CH40) and M-60 (C2H402) in the mass spectrum of II, together with an AB quartet due to the C-10, C-1Oa protons centered at T 7.27 and 'c 6.63 (J=lOcps) in its NMR spectrum (CDC13), suggest that GA26 retains the structural features common to the known gibberellins. As summarized in Table I, the functional groups of II are deduced on the basis of the IR, W and NMR spectra. GA26 rapidly consumed periodate and easily formed a diacetate (III), m.p. 209-210ยฐ, having no free hyaroxyl group. These suggest the presence of C-2 is indicated by the CDC13; t 8.50 in C5D5N) C5D5N) in the change of a cis-1,2-glycol system in GA26. -An axial hydroxyl at down-field shifts of the C-l methyl singlet (t 8.79 in and. the C-1Oa proton doublet (T 6.63 in CDC13; 6.09 in the solvent from CDC13 to C5D5N (2). Therefore the other hydroxyl must be attached to C-3 in the equatorial conformation. The C-2 proton doublet at t 6.25 (J=$.O cps) rationalizes the existence of a hydroxyi substituent at C-3 and the equatorial cocformation of.the C-3 hydroxyl is supported by the C-3 proton multiplet with a large width (20 cps) characteristic of an axial proton. The pattern of &OH region is very similar to that of GA8. Therefore GA26 ccntains a C-22, C-3g-glycol.
