(Chemical Equation Presented) A total synthesis of the naturally occurring hydroxy ketone PEIPC 1, a compound that plays a role in endothelial activation in atherosclerosis, has been completed via a triply convergent preparation of a protected EI derivative 13 from 3,5-diacetoxycyclopentene 7, pentane-1,5-diol, and vinyllithium, using Sharpless epoxidation and enzymatic resolution as key steps. Final coupling with lyso-PC 16 and silyl group deprotection gave PECPC 2 and PEIPC 1, which showed the same activity as natural PECPC and PEIPC.

The tricyclic ketone 14, an ophiobolin analogue lacking only the C-ring side chain, was synthesized in optically active form; the key step was the intramolecular NiCl2/CrCl2 mediated coupling of 10 to yield 11.
