Beschreibung

S-Methyl thiopropionate is a natural product that is biosynthesized by the wild-type strain of Brevibacterium. It can be synthesized in the lab from tropone and corynebacterium glutamicum. Fatty acid methyl esters are used to synthesize this compound for use as a potential antibiotic or as an intermediate for other compounds. The synthesis of S-methyl thiopropionate begins with the demethylation of tropone, which creates 3-hydroxytropone from 3-hydroxyphenylacetic acid. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme hydroxymethyltransferase. The next step in the synthesis is to convert 3-hydroxytropone into tropinone through a reductive amination reaction using methylamine and formaldehyde as reactants. After this step, tropinone is converted into methylthiobutyrate through an enzymatic reaction with meth
