A new semi-synthetic way to produce glucoraphanin (2), the bio-precursor of the potential anticarcinogen sulforaphane (3), has been developed. Starting from glucoerucin (1), isolated from ripe seeds of Eruca sativa, glucoraphanin was obtained through chemoselective oxidation. Controlled myrosinase-catalysed hydrolysis of this precursor quantitatively afforded sulforaphane.
