Title | On the Role of A 1-Piperideine and Tripiperideine in the Biosynthesis of Quinolizidine Alkaloids ![]() | ||
Abstract | Carbon 14-labelled cadaverine, A 1-piperideine and a-tripiperideine were administered to leaf disks of Lupinuspolyphyllus in short term experiments of 12—20 h duration. Whereas cadaverine was readily incorporated into lupanine in good yields, a 7 to 60 times lower incorporation was observed for tripiperideine or A 1-piperideine. In L. arboreus the incorporation of cadaverine into sparteine was 9 times better than that of A 1-piperideine. These results indicate that A 1-piperideine and tripiperideine are not direct intermediates of lupanine or of sparteine bio-synthesis. | ||
