Synthesis of a photoaffinic hepoxilin analog
Abstract
The synthesis of 20-azido(tri-n-butyltin)benzoate of 20-hydroxy-(8S)-hepoxilin A3 (HxA3*) methyl ester, a tool for the labelling of proteins involved in hepoxilin metabolism, has been performed starting from a synthetic precursor of 20-hydroxy hepoxilins.
