Abstract
A Wittig reaction employing Li(CD3)2CP(C 6H5)3 was used to prepare d6- farnesol and d6-geranylgeraniol. Reductive amination of aniline-2,3,4,5,6-d5 was used to prepare the unnatural isoprenoid analogues d5-anilinogeraniol and d5-anilinofarnesol. All of these deuterated isoprenols were elaborated into their diphosphate and cysteine thioether derivatives suitable for use as stable-isotope labeled standards for quantitative mass spectrometric analysis. Deuterated isoprenols d6-farnesol, d6-geranylgeraniol, d5- anilinogeraniol, d5-anilinofarnesol and their corresponding diphosphates and cysteine thioethers were synthesized. These compounds are useful as stable-isotope labeled standards for quantitative mass spectrometric analysis.
