Biotransformation and stereoselective synthesis of pharmaceutical molecules from linoleic acid

The biotransformation of linoleic acid 1 using immobilised soybean lipoxygenase in a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) containing medium followed by sodium borohydride reduction afforded 13(S)-hydroxy-octadeca-9(Z),11(E)-dienoic acid 13(S)-HODE 2 in 69% yield. After methylation, methyl 13(S)-HODE was subjec...
