Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of methyl 5-amino-2-hydroxybenzoate (0.27 g, 1.6 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added arachidonic acid (0.5 g, 1.6 mmol), EDCI (0.32 g, 1.7 mmol) and dimethylaminopyridine (0.020 g, 0.2 mmol). The reaction was stirred (RT, 2 h), and then partitioned between DCM and brine. The aqueous layer was extracted with DCM, and the combined organic layers were washed with 1N HCl, water, saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and water, and then dried over MgSO4. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (0-5% MeOH/DCM) to afford 0.6 g of methyl 2-hydroxy-5-(5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-icosa-5,8,11,14-tetraenamidobenzoate as a brown oil. Mass calculated for C28H39NO4=453.61; found: [M+H]+=454.3.
