Discovery and Mechanistic Investigation of a Bacteria-Derived Sesquiterpene Ether Synthase AceS Catalyzing Syn -Protoetherification
To discharge the carbocation in the termination step of terpene synthase (TS)-catalyzed cyclization, in addition to proton elimination to form alkene products and water quenching to afford hydroxylated products, intramolecular hydroxy group-trapping to give terpene ethers represents a variation of the latter case. Am...
