Notes:
Formation of Enol Ether Epoxides by Reaction of (9S,10E,12Z)-Hydroperoxyoctadecadienoic Acid with Plasmalogens(9S,10E,12Z)-Hydroperoxyoctadecadienoic acid (8a) oxidizes enol ethers (e.g. 2 and neutral plasmalogens 3) under physiological conditions (pH = 6.6, room temperature). The reaction products, unstable enol ether epoxides 9a and 10a, react as recently demonstrated with methanol to α-hydroxyaldehyde dialkyl acetals 11a or with 1,2-ethanedithiol to 2-(α-hydroxyalkyl)dithiolans 13a which can be detected by GC/MS after trimethylsilylation. If [18O2]-(9S,10E,12Z)-hydroperoxy-octadecadienoic acid (8b) is used instead of 8a one atom of 18O is incorporated into the enol ether epoxide and found in the α-hydroxy group of the aldehyde derivatives 11 and 13.
