Abstract

The C-13 long-range selective proton decoupling method and X-ray crystallographic analysis were employed to determine the stereochemistry of the caffeic acid derivatives, extremely potent 12-lipoxygenase inhibitors, synthesized from cyanoacetates and aromatic aldehydes. The ester group of 1 and 2 was found to be trans to the phenyl group.
