Abstract

Deuterated arachidonic acid and 20-HETE were prepared in good overall yields and high stereoselectivities. Key transformations include a trans-specific vinyl dibromide reduction and Suzuki cross-couplings to a lithium borate or a 9-BBN borane. These standards are three and two mass units higher, respectively, than their naturally occurring counterparts and are useful in mass spectrometry analysis.
