ABSTRACT
Natural products represent a rich source of bioactive compounds, covering a large chemical space. Even if challenging, this diversity can be extended by applying chemical modifications. However, these studies generally require multigram amounts of isolated natural products and face frequent testing failures. To overcome this limitation, we propose a rapid and efficient approach that uses molecular networking (MN) to visualize the new chemical diversity generated by simple chemical modifications of natural extracts. Moreover, the strategy deployed enables the most appropriate reagents to be defined quickly upstream of a reaction on a pure compound, in order to maximize chemical diversity. This methodology was applied to the latex extract of Euphorbia dendroides to follow the reactivity toward a series of Brønsted and Lewis acids of three class of diterpene esters identified in this species jatrophane, terracinolide, and phorbol. Through the molecular networking interpretation, with the aim to illustrate our approach, BF3·OEt2 was selected for chemical modification on isolated jatrophane esters. Three rearranged compounds (3-5) were obtained, showing that the most appropriate reagents can be selected by MN interpretation.
