| Résumé : | The administration of sodium [1-14C] and [2-14C] acetate, L-[U-14C] glutamic acid, γ-amino [U-14C] butyric acid, L-[U-14C] ornithine hydrochloride, and [1,4-14C] putrescine dihydrochloride to Tetraponera sp. ants resulted in the formation, for each feeding experiment, of labelled tetraponerine-8 (2). The distribution of radioactivity into 2 was established by chemical degradation. The results obtained favor the hypothesis that the pyrrolidine ring of tetraponerine-8 is derived from L-glutamic acid via L-ornithine and putrescine, while the 12-carbon chain is derived from the combination of six acetate units. |
