The (7R,15R)- and (7S,15R)-diastereomers of dolatrienoic acid were synthesized using a convergent strategy. Fragment C5-C9 was obtained through enantiodifferentiation of racemic pentane-1,3,5-triol as the key step, fixing the chirality at C7 of fragments 4 and ent-4. The chirality at C15 of the fragment C10-C16 was introduced from L-glutamic acid. Coupling of these two fragments led to the aldehydes (7R,15R)- and (7S,15R)-2 which were homologated by Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons condensation to give (7R,15R)- and (7S,15R)-dolatrienoic acids.

The stereospecific synthesis of (7S,15S)- and (7R,15S)-dolatrienoic acids (2) was achieved using an approach consisting of 16 linear steps. The C-11--C-16 unit was prepared in seven steps from ethyl (S)-lactate and coupled using a trans-selective Wittig--Schlosser reaction to the C-7--C-10 fragment. Chirality at the C-7 position was introduced using an Evan's-type chiral auxiliary in a cobalt-mediated Reformatsky reaction to give the (3S,11S)-aldehyde 24.
