Stereoselective Synthesis and Structural Confirmation of the Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediator Resolvin E4.


ABSTRACT: Herein, we report the stereoselective and convergent synthesis of resolvin E4, a newly identified specialized pro-resolving mediator. This synthesis proves the absolute configuration and exact olefin geometry. Key elements of the successful strategy include a highly stereoselective MacMillan organocatalytic oxyamination, a Midland Alpine borane reduction, and the use of a 1,4-pentadiyne unit as a linchpin building block. The application of reaction telescoping in several of the synthetic transformations enabled the preparation of the resolvin E4 methyl ester in 10% yield over 10 steps (longest linear sequence). The physical property (UV-Vis and LC-MS/MS) data of synthetic resolvin E4 matched those obtained from biologically produced material.
