Abstract: | Summary. The stereoselective syntheses of four unsaturated hydroxy fatty acids 13S,2E,4E,9E)- 13-hydroxy-2,4,9-tetradecatrienoic acid, (13S,9Z,11E)-13-hydroxy-9,11-tetradecadienoic acid, (13S,9E, 11E)-13-hydroxy-9,11-tetradecadienoic acid, and (13S,2E,4E,9E)-13-hydroxy-2,4,9,11-tetradecatrienoic acid, are described. Wittig reactions, regioselective oxidation of dialcohol 3, and diastereomerization were used. |
