Published: April 2020

An efficient method for the one-pot synthesis of tetramic acid derivatives was developed utilizing tandem umpolung N-alkylation/reduction/cyclization of γ-hydrazono β-ketoester. By using this reaction as a key step, the total synthesis of the 3-spiro 7-hydroxamic acid tetralin which possesses an HDAC inhibitory activity was also achieved.

Polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs) represent a growing class of bioactive natural products that are derived from a common tetramate polyene precursor, lysobacterene A, produced by an unusual bacterial iterative polyketide synthase (PKS) / non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS). The structural and functional diversity of PoTeMs is biosynthetically elaborated from lysobacterene A by pathway-specific cyclizing and modifying enzymes. This results in diverse core structure decoration and cyclization patterns.

Genome mining and gene deletion experiments in proved the involvement of the PKS-NRPS PemA and the -enoyl reductase PemB in the formation of three enantiomeric clavatol-containing tetramate pairs. Overexpression of a transcription factor significantly improved the product yields. Feeding experiments provided evidence for their formation via 1,4-Michael addition of hydroxyclavatol to two tetramates from the Pem pathway.

Lipid metabolism is essential to insect life as insects use lipids for their development, reproduction, flight, diapause, and a wide range of other functions. The central organ for insect lipid metabolism is the fat body, which is analogous to mammalian adipose tissue and liver, albeit less structured. Various other systems including the midgut, brain, and neural organs also contribute functionally to insect lipid metabolism.

The growing problem of herbicide resistance necessitates the development of novel herbicidal active ingredients, together with other integrated weed management approaches. Natural products are a major source of inspiration for novel actives. In previous research, we identified a 3-acyltetramic acid of microbial origin that inhibited algal growth in marine biofilms, at least in part through inhibition of photosystem II.

Biofilms represent a key challenge in the treatment of microbial infections; for instance, causes chronic or fatal infections by forming biofilms on medical devices. Herein, the fungus was found to produce a novel family of PKS-NRPS metabolites that are able to disrupt preformed biofilms of . Arcopilins A-F (-), tetramic acids, and arcopilin G (), a 2-pyridone, were elucidated using HR-ESI-MS and one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
