Example 9
A 50° C. solution of L,L-lysyllysine (58.9 mg, 0.215 mmol) in methanol (0.5 mL) was treated with a solution of tocopherol (2.8 mg in 0.2 mL of EtOAc) and a solution of RvD2 (84.5 mg, 0.224 mmol) in methanol (0.5 mL). The solution stirred for 20 minutes, cooled slightly, and was concentrated in vacuo. The oil was re-suspended in HPLC grade acetonitrile (˜3 mL), cooled to 0° C., and stirred for 3 hours to triturate the solid. Only a small amount of filterable solid formed and the suspension was stored at −20° C. overnight. The material was filtered and dried overnight in a vacuum oven (ambient temperature) to afford 46 mg (33%) of RvD2 L,L-lysyllysine salt as a light orange solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, Methanol-d4) δ 6.81-6.70 (m, 2H), 6.39 (dd, J=14.7, 10.9 Hz, 1H), 6.29 (dd, J=14.4, 10.9 Hz, 1H), 6.08-5.95 (m, 2H), 5.85 (dd, J=15.0, 7.1 Hz, 1H), 5.76 (dd, J=15.1, 6.3 Hz, 1H), 5.58-5.36 (m, 4H), 4.27 (dd, J=7.8, 5.3 Hz, 1H), 4.18 (q, J=6.3 Hz, 1H), 4.05-3.97 (m, 1H), 3.54 (dt, J=8.2, 4.8 Hz, 1H), 3.41 (t, J=6.6 Hz, 1H), 2.92 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 4H), 2.34 (m, 5H), 2.26-2.14 (m, 3H), 2.10-2.05 (m, 2H), 1.87 (m, 2H), 1.68 (m, 6H), 1.47 (m, 4H), 0.97 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 3H).
