Abstract
Cyclosporin A (CsA) was converted into cyclosporin methyl vinyl ketone (Cs-MVK) by either a biocatalytic method utilizing 1-hydroxybenzotriazole-mediated laccase oxidation or by a chemical oxidation using t-butyl hydroperoxide and potassium periodate as co-oxidants. Cs-MVK is a novel, versatile synthetic intermediate that can be used for the preparation of many novel cyclosporin analogues possessing therapeutic potential as immunosuppressive agents.
