N-(17-Acyloxy-acyl)-glutamines: Novel Surfactants from Oral Secretions of Lepidopteran Larvae
Spiteller, Dieter,Boland, Wilhelm
, p. 8743 - 8749 (2003)
N-(17-Acyloxy-acyl)-glutamine conjugates such as N-(17-linolenoyloxy-linolenoyl)-glutamine (6), N-(17-linolenoyloxy-linoleoyl)-glutamine (7), N-(17-linoleoyloxy-linolenoyl)-glutamine (8), and N-(17-linoleoyloxy-linoleoyl)-glutamine (9) were identified as novel surfactants in the oral secretion of several lepidopteran larvae (S. exigua, S. littoralis, S. frugiperda, and H. virescens) by LC-MS/MS and chemical degradation. Authentic reference compounds were synthesized via a dissymmetric bis-Wittig approach and confirmed the assigned structures.

Fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are a growing class of natural products found in organisms ranging from plants to humans. The roles these endogenous derivatives of fatty acids play in biology and their novel pathways for controlling inflammation have increased our understanding of basic human physiology. FAHFAs incorporate diverse fatty acids into their structures, however, given their recent discovery non-natural derivatives have not been a focus and as a result structure-activity relationships remain unknown. The importance of the long chain hydrocarbons extending from the ester linkage as they relate to anti-inflammatory activity is unknown. Herein the systematic removal of carbons from either the hydroxy fatty acid or fatty acid regions of the most studied FAHFA, palmitic acid ester of 9-hydroxystearic acid (9-PAHSA), was achieved and these synthetic, abridged analogs were tested for their ability to attenuate IL-6 production. Reduction of the carbon chain lengths of the 9-hydroxystearic acid portion or palmitic acid hydrocarbon chain resulted in lower molecular weight analogs that maintained anti-inflammatory activity or in one case enhanced activity.
Stereocontrolled synthesis of the PPAR-γ agonist 10-nitrolinoleic acid
Dunny, Elizabeth,Evans, Paul
, p. 5334 - 5336 (2010)
(Figure presented) The naturally occurring PPAR-γ ligand 10-nitrooctadeca-9(E),12(Z)-dienoic acid (10-nitrolinoleic acid) (2a) was prepared as a single regio- and geometrical isomer in a practical eight-step, convergent sequence. The synthetic route featured a nitro aldol reaction between 9-oxononanoic acid methyl ester (3) and 1-nitronon-3(Z)-ene (4) in the key carbon-carbon bond forming step. The ability of 2a (and its methyl ester 9) to bind to PPAR-γ in a ligand-binding assay is reported.
A concise approach to both enantiomers of phytoprostane B1 type II
Perlikowska, Wieslawa,Mikolajczyk, Marian
, p. 1767 - 1771 (2011)
The synthesis of enantiomeric phytoprostane B1 type II methyl esters has been accomplished in approximately 30% overall yield via two basic transformations starting from 3-[(dimethoxyphosphoryl)methyl]cyclopentenone as a key reagent. They include ethylation of the ring C(2) carbon and a Horner olefination reaction using the phosphonate moiety at C(3). The novel components of the Horner reaction, the enantiomeric methyl 9-formyl-9-hydroxynanoates, were easily prepared from racemic methyl 9-hydroxy-10-undecenoate via asymmetric Sharpless epoxidation (kinetic resolution) followed by ozonolysis.

New synthetic pathways are proposed for the production of a broad range of innovative sophorolipid amines and sophorolipid quaternary ammonium salts starting from microbially produced sophorolipids. The selective formation of an intermediate sophorolipid
Total Synthesis of α-Ketol Derivative of Linolenic Acid (KODA), a Flower-inducing Factor in Lemna paucicostata
Yokokawa, Yoshihiro,Kobayashi, Kouji,Yokoyama, Mineyuki,Yamamura, Shosuke
, p. 844 - 845 (2003)
Racemic 9-hydroxy-10-oxo-12(Z), 15(Z)-octadecadienoic acid [(±)-KODA] was synthesized via a coupling reaction between a diyne and an epoxide derived from methyl oleate as a key step. An optically active 9R-KODA was also synthesized by enantioselective lipase-catalyzed esterification of an allyl alcohol. Both synthetic (±)-KODA and 9K-KODA showed remarkable flower-inducing activity in Pharbitis nil.

Nitrated fatty acids act as endogenous peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) ligands and nitric oxide (NO) donors. We describe the first specific preparation of the two regioisomers of nitrooleic acid, (E)-9-nitrooctadec-9-enoic acid (1) an

A tungsten containing catalyst catalyzed oxidative cleavage of methyl oleate (MO) by employing H2O2 as an oxidant and is known as an efficient approach for preparing high value-added chemicals, however, the tungsten leaching problem remains unresolved. In this work, a binary catalyst consisting of tungsten oxide (WO3) and spongy titanosilicate (STS) zeolite is proposed for MO oxidative cleavage. The function of STS in this catalyst is investigated. On the one hand, STS converts MO to 9,10-epoxystearate (MES), which further forms nonyl aldehyde (NA) and methyl azelaaldehydate (MAA) with the catalysis of WO3. In this way, MO oxidation and hydrolysis that generates unwanted diol product 9,10-dihydroxystearate (MDS) decreases obviously. On the other hand, STS decomposes peroxide and promotes the conversion of soluble peroxotungstate to insoluble polytungstate. Meanwhile, these tungsten species are allowed to precipitate on its surface instead of remaining in the liquid phase owing to its relative large specific area. Therefore, tungsten leaching can be reduced from 37.0% to 1.2%. Due to the cooperation of WO3 and STS, 94.4% MO conversion and oxidative cleavage product selectivity of 63.1% are achieved, and the WO3-STS binary catalyst maintains excellent catalytic performance for 8 recycling reactions.
Biobased Aldehydes from Fatty Epoxides through Thermal Cleavage of β-Hydroxy Hydroperoxides**
De Dios Miguel, Thomas,Duc Vu, Nam,Lemaire, Marc,Duguet, Nicolas
, p. 379 - 386 (2020/11/30)
The ring-opening of epoxidized methyl oleate by aqueous H2O2 has been studied using tungsten and molybdenum catalysts to form the corresponding fatty β-hydroxy hydroperoxides. It was found that tungstic acid and phosphotungstic acid gave the highest selectivities (92–93 %) towards the formation of the desired products, thus limiting the formation of the corresponding fatty 1,2-diols. The optimized conditions were applied to a range of fatty epoxides to give the corresponding fatty β-hydroxy hydroperoxides with 30–80 % isolated yields (8 examples). These species were fully characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and HPLC-HRMS, and their stability was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The thermal cleavage of the β-hydroxy hydroperoxide derived from methyl oleate was studied both in batch and flow conditions. It was found that the thermal cleavage in flow conditions gave the highest selectivity towards the formation of aldehydes with limited amounts of byproducts. The aldehydes were both formed with 68 % GC yield, and nonanal and methyl 9-oxononanoate were isolated with 57 and 55 % yield, respectively. Advantageously, the overall process does not require large excess of H2O2 and only generates water as a byproduct.

The first total synthesis of marine natural product, (?)-majusculoic acid (1) and its seven analogs (9–15), was accomplished in three to ten steps with a yield of 3% to 28%. The strategy featured the application of the conformational controlled establishment of the trans-cyclopropane and stereochemical controlled bromo-olefination or olefination by Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons (HWE) reaction. The potential anti-inflammatory activity of the eight compounds (1 and 9–15) was evaluated by determining the nitric oxide (NO) production in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse macrophages RAW264.7. (?)-Majusculoic acid (1), methyl majusculoate (9), and (1R,2R)-2-((3E,5Z)-6-bromonona-3,5-dien-1-yl)cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (12) showed significant effect with inhibition rates of 33.68%, 35.75%, and 43.01%, respectively. Moreover, they did not show cytotoxicity against RAW264.7 cells, indicating that they might be potential anti-inflammatory agents.
