the S enantiomer is a much better substrate for the divinyl ether synthase compared to the R enantiomer. Incubation of (9Z,11E,13S)-[18O2]hydroperoxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid leads to the formation of etheroleic acid which retains 18O in the ether oxygen. An intermediary role of an epoxyallylic cation in etheroleic acid biosynthesis is postulated
two isomers of etheroleic acid are isolated

preferred substrates of the enzyme are the 13-hydroperoxides of alpha-linolenic and linoleic acids, which are converted to the divinyl ether oxylipins (omega5Z)-etherolenic acid, (9Z,11E)-12-[(1?Z,3?Z)-hexadienyloxy]-9,11-dodecadienoic acid, and (omega5Z)-etheroleic acid, (9Z,11E)-12-[(1?Z)-hexenyloxy]-9,11-dodecadienoic acid, respectively, as revealed by the data of mass spectrometry, NMR and UV spectroscopy

products are analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, individual oxylipins are purified by HPLC and finally identified by their NMR data, including the 1H NMR, 2D-COSY, HSQC and HMBC, overview. Enzyme CYP74M3 (SmDES2) converts 13-HPOT and 13-HPOD mainly to etherolenic and etheroleic acids, respectively, via an (E)-vinyl ether radial intermediate. The enzyme is inactive towards (9S,10E,12Z,15Z)-9-hydroperoxy-10,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid (9-HPOT) and (9S,10E,12Z)-9-hydroperoxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acid (9-HPOD)
