The terminal olefin metabolite of valproic acid (VPA), 4-ene VPA, is an analog of the experimental hepatotoxin 4-pentenoic acid and is believed to play a role in the hepatotoxicity of VPA. The formation of glutathione and N-acetylcysteine conjugates of the

The metabolism of 4-pentenoate in isolated kidney tubules has been investigated by 1H and 13C NMR. The 4-pentenoate metabolite, 3-keto-4-pentenoyl-CoA, accumulated in proximal tubules only and its formation could be competitively inhibited by octanoate. 4-Pentenoate was metabolized in thick ascending

A reagent controlled organocatalytic enantioselective chlorolactonization reaction has been developed. Several 4-aryl pentenoic acids were cyclized in the presence of 0.1 equiv of (DHQD)(2)PHAL, employing various N-chlorinated hydantoins as the terminal chlorenium source. Ten examples are presented with selectivities ranging
