ABSTRACT

All stereoisomers of beta-methoxytyrosine (beta-OMeTyr), a stereo-undefined component of callipeltin A, were synthesized from L- and D-tyrosine. The stereochemistry of beta-OMeTyr in callipeltin A was determined to be 2R,3R by an oxidative procedure and Marfey's analysis. [structure: see text]
