In this work, the whole aqueous extracts of soybean flour and oat flour have been used as valuable alternatives to purified oxygenase enzymes for the preparation of oxylipins derived from (5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). The lipoxygenase activity in the aqueous extracts of soybean (Glycine max. L.) flour was monitored with linoleic acid as substrate and compared with the commercially available purified enzyme (LOX-1). Oat flour extracts (Avena sativa L.) were evaluated for their peroxygenase activity by comparing different enzyme preparations in the epoxidation of methyl oleate. It was found that lyophilization of the aqueous extracts from these vegetable flours offers advantages in terms of enzyme stability, reproducibility and applicability to preparative organic synthesis. The lyophilized enzyme preparations were tested for the oxyfunctionalization of EPA and the formed products were isolated in satisfactory yields. In the presence of lyophilized extract from soybean, EPA gave 15S-hydroxy-(5Z,8Z,11Z,13E,17Z)-eicosapentaenoic acid in enantiopure form as exclusive product. Peroxygenase from oat flour was less selective and catalyzed the formation of different epoxides of EPA. However, the biocatalyzed epoxidation of EPA under controlled conditions allowed to obtain optically active (17R,18S)-epoxy-(5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-eicosatetraenoic acid (65% ee) as the main monoepoxide, among the five possible ones.

Epoxy PUFAs are endogenous cytochrome P450 (P450) metabolites of dietary PUFAs. Although these metabolites exert numerous biological effects, attempts to study their complex biology have been hampered by difficulty in obtaining the epoxides as pure regioi

The reaction of TMS-substituted epoxy alcohols (and derivatives) with dimsyl sodium (NaDMSO) to give 1-alkene-3,4-diols was used for the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched 17(R),18(S)-EpETE and two diastereoisomers of isoleukotoxin diol. In the synthesis of 17(R),18(S)-EpETE, the α-ethoxyethyl ether (EE) of the epoxy alcohol derived from (R)-1-TMS-1-penten-3-ol underwent reaction with NaDMSO to give the mono EE-protected 1-hexene-3,4-diol. The aldehyde obtained by hydroboration/oxidation was subjected to Wittig reaction to afford a mono EE-protected diol. The corresponding mono mesylate was prepared and subjected to epoxide ring formation to afford 17(R),18(S)-EpETE stereoselectively. Similarly, a reaction of the anti epoxy alcohol derived from (R)-1-TMS-1-octen-3-ol with NaDMSO gave the anti form of 1-nonene-3,4-diol, which was converted to 12(S),13(R)-isoleukotoxin diol through Wittig reaction. 12(R),13(R)-Isoleukotoxin diol was synthesized in a similar manner.

Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) metabolize polyun-saturated long-chain fatty acids (PUFA-LC) to several classes of oxygenated metabolites. Through use of human recombinant CYPs, we recently showed that CYP1A1, -2C19, -2D6, -2E1, and -3A4 are mainly hydroxylases, whereas CYP1A2, -2C8, -2C9, and -2J2 are mainly epoxygenases of arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), respectively. It is worth noting that the last double bond of these PUFAs, i.e., ω6 in AA or ω3 in EPA and DHA, respectively, was preferentially epoxidized. In this study, we have characterized the stereoselectivity of this epoxidation reaction by comparison with the PUFA-LC epoxide stereoisomers obtained from the enantioselective bacterial CYP102A1 F87V. The stereoselectivity of the epoxidation of the last olefi n of AA (ω6), EPA (ω3), or DHA (ω3) differed between the CYP isoforms but was similar for EPA and DHA. These data give additional insight into the PUFA-LC epoxide enantiomers generated by the hepatic CYPs. Copyright
