Regiospecific synthesis of isoapocodeine from 10,11-dimethoxyaporphine by using Cunninghamella elegans
Abstract
A preparative-scale regiospecific conversion of 10,11-dimethoxyaporphine to isoapocodeine was conducted with Cunninghamella elegans ATCC 9245. This biotransformation proceeded quantitatively in suspensions and was pH dependent. The influence of antioxidants on the conversion was studied. Attempts to preserve the activity of isolated C. elegans cells by a number of methods were unsuccessful.
