Abstract: | An improved synthesis of the naturally occurring hydroxy ketone 1-palmitoyl-2-(5,6)-epoxyisoprostane E 2- sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PEIPC) 1, a compound that plays a role in endothelial activation in atherosclerosis, has been carried out using a PMB ether as the key protecting group. Opening of an intermediate with pentylamine shows that the allylic epoxide is the position of attack by nucleophiles. |
