摘要

Novel analogues of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), an endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligand, were developed. Chemical synthesis of these analogues (2-AGA105 and 2-AGA109) was accomplished starting from 2-octyn-1-ol and diethyl malonate and employing Wittig coupling of triene phosphonate with an aldehyde intermediate in a convergent and stereoselective manner. These analogues should be useful lead compounds for the development of novel 2-AG mimetics.
