Synthesis of long-chain fatty acid enol esters isolated from an environmental DNA clone. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • [structure: see text] Long-chain fatty acid enol ester 1 is the major metabolite of a new family of small molecules isolated from the heterologous expression of environmentally derived DNA. A versatile synthesis of 1, in which an aromatic acetaldehyde is O-acylated with a long-chain acyl chloride allowed for the rapid construction of both the isolated product (1) and a number of structural analogues (including 8, 17, and 18).
