Abstract

A highly stereocontrolled and practical new method for synthesis of LTB,(l), 20-OH-LTB4 (2), and LTBB (3) has been developed, which uses the palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of the vinylborane 5, derived from the C (l)-C (9) fragment 4, with the corresponding C (lO)-C (20) fragments 6a-c. The acetylene 4 was synthesized by palladium-copper-catalyzed coupling reaction of (trimethylsily1) acetylene with the bromide 12, which was prepared ...
