Total synthesis of 15(RS)-5,6-dehydro-8-epi-PGF2α methyl ester by a biomimetic process
摘要:
The first total synthesis of 15(RS)-5,6-dehydro-8-epi-PGF(2 alpha) methyl ester 1 with high stereoselectivity and good yield, is described using D-glucose as starting material. This novel isoprostane is a potent precursor of labelled (deutered and/or tritiated) 8-epi-PGF(2 alpha), an useful tool for biological studies. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
Epoxygenase eicosanoids: Synthesis of tetrahydrofuran-diol metabolites and their vasoactivity
摘要:
Eight members of a recently identified family of tetrahydrofuran-diols (THFDs), originating from epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), were prepared stereospecifically from D-(+)-glucose. The THFDs potently induced relaxation of pre-contracted bovine arteries. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
