Research Abstract |
Stereoselective synthesis of promising flower-inducing fatty acids, KODA analogs, was designed to obtain the desired stereoisomer viacoupling between chiral sulfone and aldehyde segments. Coupling of the both segments and subsequent assembly gave the desired analog. This strategy made it possible to synthesize the remaining stereoisomeric analogs. By using synthetic KODA analogs, the study of mechanistic elucidation of flower-inducing activity by KODA and the development of flower-inducing regulator are expected to progress.
