Abstract

Endogenous nitrated fatty acids are an important class of signaling molecules. Herein a modular route for the efficient and regiospecific preparation of nitrooleic acids as well as various analogues is described. The approach is based on a simple set of alkyl halides as common building blocks and a Henry reaction/Burgess dehydration sequence for the formation of the key nitroalkene moiety.
