Transformation of secologanin and its ethylene acetal was investigated under acidic and basic conditions. Under acidic conditions both compounds gave benzaldehyde and an undefined fragment. A primary amine was incorporated into the substrate by lactamization with or without deglucosylation. Secondary and tertiary amines catalyzed lactonization of secologanin, but piperidine cleaved the acetal into methyl 3-piperidino-acrylate and an undefined C-7 unit which proved to be a phenyl group analogous to the indole alkaloid derivatives of secologanin. The biogenetic and biomimetic significance of the fragmentation is discussed. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
