Abstract
(All-E)-5-demethyl-8,16-methanoretinal was prepared in both optical antipodes (1R and 1S), as well as in their 9-Z and 13-Z forms. The interaction of the 1R and 1S forms with bacterioopsin shows that there is a clear chiral recognition on the formation of the bacteriorhodopsin analogues, reflected in the rate of binding and ϵmax values. The two bacteriorhodopsins with optically active chromophores have an identical λmax value and show the same efficiency of the light-driven proton pump. The absence of the 5-methyl group leads to a 50% lower proton-pump efficiency than the native system. In addition, for the racemic 5-demethyl-8,16-methanoretinal, the 5-2H, 7-2H, 5,7-2H2 and 5,7,16a,16a-2H4 isotopomers in the various isomeric forms all-E, 9-Z and 13-Z were also prepared.Keywords
