The autoinducer is a low molecular weight compound that is easily leached from the cells into the culture medium. By the propagation of bacterial cells, the concentration of the autoinducer in the medium increases. When the concentration reaches a certain threshold, the biosynthesis of bioluminescence system begins, and the bacteria become luminescent. The process is also called quorum sensing (Fuqua et al., 1994). [Pg.42]

A rapid synthesis of carbon-14 labeled [l-14C]levulinic acid from simple building blocks has been demonstrated by Johansen and coworkers (Scheme 6.172) [324], In all three of the synthetic steps, starting from bromo[l-14C]acetic acid, microwave heating was used to accelerate the reactions, allowing a total preparation time of less than 1 h. The labeled levulinic acid was subsequently transformed into (5Z)-4-bromo-5-(bromomethylene)-2(5H)-furanone in a bromination/oxidation sequence (not shown), a potent quorum sensing inhibitor.
