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 transfo ...[more]
