Abstract
Primary amines (ammonia, methyl, propyl, octyl, octadecyl, phenyl, benzyl, phenethyl) including methyl esters of amino acids (glycine, dl-alanine, l-valine, l-leucine, L-tyrosine, and l-methionine), and secondary amines (dimethyl, diethyl, dipropyl, diisopropyl, dioctyl, and diphenyl) attack regiospecifically the central carbon atom of the allene system of methyl 12-keto-9,10-octadecadienoate (1) to give the corresponding lipidic enaminone derivatives (2–21) with an average yield of 77%. The E- and Z-configuration of the enaminone system of these novel lipid derivatives was confirmed by infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic techniques. Primary amines furnished Z-enaminones, while secondary amines gave E-enaminones.
