Synopsis: 3-Oxa-OPC and 2-fluoro-OPC homologues which do not undergo β-oxidation were synthesized from esters of odd-numbered OPC homologues by a short-step procedure. The 3-oxa-OPC homologues were synthesized via etherification of an alcohol with tert-butyl bromoacetate under phase-transfer conditions. The 2-fluoro-OPC homologues were synthesized via the addition of the trichloromethyl anion to an aldehyde and subsequent fluorination.
