The alkali-catalysed rearrangement of (R)-[1-C-13]-3-hydroxy-3-methylpentan-2-one has been studied. Rearrangement via a transition state having an anti arrangement of C-O bonds was preferred over that with a syn arrangement by a factor of 1.8:1. The result is of interest in relation to the mechanism of action of the enzymes reductoisomerase and acetolactate decarboxylase, both of which are involved in the metabolism of the branched-chain amino acids. The structure and relative configuration of the product 23 of bromolactonisation of N-methacrylolyl L-proline 22 were determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis.
