Abstract
17(S)-Hydroxy docosahexaenoic acid (17(S)-HDHA) is a specialized pro-resolving mediator. The oxidation of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to 17(S)-HDHA using soybean lipoxygenase was accomplished in the presence of the reducing agent TCEP in high yield and high enantio excess. We demonstrated application of this strategy to the synthesis of other fatty acids and to gram scale synthesis of 17(S)-HDHA.
Keywords:
17-HDHA; 17-HDoHE; Pro-resolving mediator; Resolvins D series; n-3 PUFA.
