N-Methylanthraniloyl-CoA was synthesized via N-succinimidyl N-methylanthranilate and subsequent transesterification with CoA-SH . This compound was characterized by LSIMS and NMR data. An enzyme preparation from cell suspension cultures of Ruta graveolens catalyzed the formation of 1,3-dihydroxy-N-methylacridone from N-methylanthraniloyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA with a pH optimum of 7.5.
