2-isopentenyl pyrophosphate
Department of Biology, York University, Toronto, Ontario
The isoprenoid precursors
3-isopentenyl pyrophosphate and
,
-dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (
2-isopentenyl pyrophosphate) have been separated by thin-layer chromatography. The products from
2-isopentenyl pyrophosphate incubated under various conditions of pH and temperature have been separated, and the survival of
2-isopentenyl pyrophosphate under these conditions has been calculated. The acid-labile
2-isopentenyl pyrophosphate can be stored indefinitely at pH 11.5 and -100°C.
Supplementary key words isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomers
