Bioactivity of brassinolide methyl ethers

Phytochemistry, 1998
Abstract Four new derivatives of brassinolide (BR) were prepared by single or multiple methylation of the hydroxyl groups at C-2, C-3, C-22 and or C-23 to afford (22 R ,23 R ,24 S )-2 α ,3 α ,23-trihydroxy-22-methoxy-7-oxa-7a-homo-5 α -ergostan-6-one (22-MeBR), (22 R ,23 R ,24 S )-2 α ,3 α ,22-trihydroxy-23-methoxy-7-oxa-7a-homo-5 α -ergostan-6-one ...

A formal synthesis of brassinolide

Tetrahedron Letters, 1997
Abstract Enzyme-catalysed differentiation of hydroxy groups in a C 2v -shaped tetraol-sulfide, combined with a E -stereoconvergent Ramberg-Backlund process, allowed to prepare pure (2 S )-2,3-dimethyl-1-iodobutane, which could be coupled with a 3,5-cyclopregnane-20-thiomethanol derivative so as to give an efficient precursor of the title vegetal ...

Stereoselective synthesis of the brassinolide side chain; novel syntheses of brassinolide and related compounds

Tetrahedron, 1990
Abstract A stereoselective synthesis of the brassinolide side chain involves the lactonization of Z-10 under acidic condition to give an α,β-unsa-turated-δ-lactone 11 with the inversion of the configuration at C-22 of the epoxy steroid in quantitative yield.

Brassinolide, a growth‐promoting steroidal lactone

Physiologia Plantarum, 1981
Brassinolide (BR), a naturally‐occurring steroidal lactone was compared with GA3 and kinetin for activity in a number of bioassays. BR was highly active in elongation bioassays employing the dwarf pea epicotyl and etiolated bean hypocotyl that are responsive to GA3 but not IAA (at 0.01 to 10 μM).

Brassinolide may control aquaporin activities in Arabidopsis thaliana

Planta, 2001
It is usually assumed that aquaporins present in the cellular membranes could be an important route in the control of water flux in plants, but evidence for this hypothesis is scarce. In this paper, we report measurements of the osmotic permeability (P(os) of protoplasts isolated from hypocotyls of wild-type and mutant Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh ...

In silico exploration for agonists/antagonists of brassinolide

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2016
Brassinolide (BL) is a plant steroid hormone that is necessary for stem elongation and cell division. To date more than 70 steroidal BL-like compounds, which are collectively named as brassinosteroids, have been identified. However, non-steroidal compounds that mimic BL have not been reported yet, which can be used as plant growth regulators.

Improved Synthesis of Castasterone and Brassinolide†

Journal of Chemical Research, 1997
Castasterone 1 is synthesized in 32% overall yield in eight steps from the known (20S)-6,6-ethylenedioxy-20-formyl-3α,5-cyclo-5α-pregnane 4.

A brassinolide biosynthetic pathway via 6-deoxocastasterone

Phytochemistry, 1996
Abstract The occurrence of 6-deoxocastasterone was demonstrated by GC-mass spectrometry in cultured cells of Catharanthus roseus . Its concentration was in the range 5.9–18.9 ng g -1 fr. wt. A feeding experiment with deuterium labelled 6-deoxocastasterone revealed that 6-deoxocastasterone was converted into castasterone and brassinolide in cultured
