title: An expeditious synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal (4-HNE), its dimethyl acetal and of related compounds.
abstract: The facile one step synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal and its dimethyl acetal via a cross-metathesis reaction between commercially available octen-3-ol and acrolein or its dimethyl acetal is reported. The method was extended to the synthesis of C6 and C12 4-hydroxy-2E-enals, their dimethyl acetal and of the 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenoic acid (4-HNA).
