Spontaneous stereoselective oxidation of crystalline avermectin B1A to its C-8a hydroperoxide
Prolonged storage of technical abamectin as well as avermectin B1a samples yielded a previously unknown derivative, designated here as compound 1. Detailed NMR analysis and X-ray crystallography allowed us to determine the structure of this compound and revealed the presence of a hydroperoxide group (-OOH) attached stereoselectively with configuration S to the C-8a carbon. This surprising result involves the formation of the peroxide bond in solid crystalline avermectin B1a upon exposure to air with no involvement of light or recognized catalytic factors and is consistent with a topotactic mechanism for the oxidation reaction. Compound 1 is stable in the absence of reducing agents and has potential as a starting point in structural modification of the tetrahydrofuran ring of avermectin B1a. It could also serve as a marker in assessing the quality of stored technical abamectin.Â
