Biological Activity
O-Demethylrotenone (1 g rotenone, equimolar boron tribromide, 12 mL dichloromethane; 2 min at -10 °C) is synthesized from rotenone via demethylation with boron tribromide, exhibits characteristic spectral and physical properties, and can be converted back to rotenone via methylation[1].
O-Demethylrotenone (1 g rotenone in 600 mL methanol; 2 hr ultraviolet irradiation with oxygen bubbling) is a neutral product of rotenone photodecomposition in oxygenated methanol solution under ultraviolet irradiation[1].
