Reaction Steps

N-Oleoyl glycine (FIG. 7) was prepared by coupling glycine ethyl ester to oleic acid with EDCI (Cravatt et al. (1996) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 118, 580-590; Patterson et al. (1996) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 118, 5938-5945) followed by sequential transformation to the carboxylic acid (LiOH) and glycinamide (EDCI, NH4OH;). N-Oleoyl sarcosine was purchased (Pfaltz and Bauer) and converted to its ethyl ester by coupling with EtOH (DCC).
