Abstract
The first total synthesis of the 10,11-dihydro-12-ketoeicosatetraenoic acid (10,11-dihydro-12-KETE) 5, a proinflammatory metabolite of 12-KE TE is reported. In addition, the total synthesis of two other potentia l metabolites of 12-KETE, namely 8,11-dihydro-12-KETE 6 and 8,9-dihydr o-12-KETE 7, is also described. These three synthetic compounds are ai med at investigating a new biosynthetic reductive pathway for 12-hydro xyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) and 12-KETE.
