Metabolite Identification
Common NameBotcinolide
DescriptionBotcinolide is a secondary metabolite belonging to the class of lactones, specifically characterized as a nine-membered ring structure. It has been the subject of extensive chemical investigation, including its asymmetric synthesis and structural determination. The asymmetric synthesis of key fragments of botcinolide and its related compound botcinin has been reported (PMID:21560756 ). Comprehensive studies have elucidated the chemistry and structural characteristics of botcinolides, botcinins, and botcinic acids, confirming their structures through total syntheses (PMID:19137164 ). Notably, the original classification of botcinolide as a nine-membered lactone was revised based on spectroscopic data, leading to its reclassification as the seco acid of botcinin E (PMID:16643065 ). This structural revision highlights the compound's instability and propensity for translactonization, resulting in the formation of gamma-lactones (PMID:19137164 ). Isolated from the phytopathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea, botcinolide and its derivatives exhibit phytotoxic properties, contributing to their biological significance (PMID:16643065 ). Overall, botcinolide represents a fascinating example of complex natural products that intertwine chemistry and biology.
