The two different structures referred to as kaurane.

Kaurane is a parent hydride used in the IUPAC nomenclature of natural products and also, distinctly, in CAS nomenclature. It is a diterpene with a rigid four-ring structure and six chiral centres.

The conventional numbering of kaurane: for the numbering of the methyl groups at C-18 and C-19, see text.

The stereochemistry of the six chiral centres is defined by convention: however, IUPAC and CAS use different opposite enantiomers, which also leads to a slight difference in numbering between the two systems. IUPAC conventional kaurane has (5S,8S,9S,10S,13S,15R)-stereochemistry, and is drawn with the five-membered ring receding into the plane of the image.^[1] CAS conventional kaurane has (5R,8R,9R,10R,13R,15S)-stereochemistry, and is drawn with the five-membered ring protruding from the plane of the image.^[2] For the two methyl groups attached to carbon-4, the two number systems are identical (but see below): the methyl group receding into the plane of the image is numbered carbon-18 and the one protruding from the plane of the image is numbered carbon-19. Revised Section F: Natural Products and Related Compounds (IUPAC Recommendations 1999). Pure Appl. Chem., 71 (4), 587–643. DOI: 10.1351/pac199971040587

The name ent-kaurane is sometimes used to refer to the CAS conventional kaurane,^[3] and so to distinguish it from the IUPAC stereochemistry, in particular by the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB).^[4] This is the structure of the cyclic skeleton of all naturally occurring kaurane terpenes. However, the numbering system is distinct between CAS nomenclature and IUBMB nomenclature: the metabolic intermediate kaurenoic acid, which has the (4S)-configuration, is kaur-16-en-18-oic acid in CAS nomenclature but ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid in IUBMB nomenclature.^[2]^[4]^{[note 1]}

Kaurane diterpenes have been extracted from a variety of plant species,^[3]^[5] in particular Stevia sp., the source of the steviol glycosides stevioside and rebaudioside-A that have been used as artificial sweetners.^[6] They are intermediates in gibberellin biosynthesis, leading to a group of important plant hormones (gibberellins):^[7] gibberellin A₁₂ is biosynthesized from ent-kaurene by six successive oxidations catalyzed by ent-kaurene oxidase (EC 1.14.13.78) and ent-kaurenoic acid oxidase (EC 1.14.13.79).^[4] The ent-kaurane skeleton is also found in veatchine and other Garrya alkaloids.^[8]

Notes and references

Notes

↑ The reason for this difference is that the ent nomenclature operation reverses the configuration of every chiral centre in the molecule, and so maps C-19 onto C-18 and vice versa.

However, the numbering system is distinct between CAS nomenclature and IUBMB nomenclature: the metabolic intermediate [[kaurenoic acid]], which has the (4''S'')-configuration, is kaur-16-en-18-oic acid in CAS nomenclature but ''ent''-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid in IUBMB nomenclature.<ref name="CAS"/><ref name="EC"/><ref group="note">The reason for this difference is that the ''ent'' nomenclature operation reverses the configuration of every chiral centre in the molecule, and so maps C-19 onto C-18 and vice versa.</ref>
