Procedure: A mixture comprising ethyl salicylate (3.14 g, 18.9 mmol) and cesium carbonate (6.2 g, 18.9 mmol), dimethylformamide (25 mL) and tert-butyl 4-chlorobutyrate (4.08 g, 22.8 mmol) was heated at 70° C. and stirred for 12 hours. The mixture was partitioned between ethyl ether (100 mL) and water and the organic layer was separated and washed with additional water (3×) and saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford a colorless oil. The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography using pure hexane to (10:1) hexane:ethyl acetate to provide ethyl 2-(3-tert-butoxycarbonylpropoxy)benzoate (3.6 g, 62% yield) as a colorless oil; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): 7.80 (d, 1H), 7.49 (tr, 1H), 7.00 (m, 2H), 4.40 (q, 2H), 4.10 (tr, 2H), 2.50 (tr, 2H), 2.10 (m, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H), 1.40 (tr, 3H). The mixture was partitioned between ethyl ether (100 mL) and water the organic layer was separated washed with additional water (3×) and saturated aqueous sodium chloride dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate filtered concentrated in vacuo to afford a colorless oil The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography

Procedure: To a solution of ethyl 2-hydroxybenzoate (0.5 g, 3.0 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (8 mL) was added 2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-3-phenylpropanoic acid (0.8 g, 3.0 mmol), EDCI (0.63 g, 3.3 mmol) and dimethylaminopyridine (0.037 g, 0.3 mmol). The reaction was stirred (RT, 3 h) and then partitioned between CH2Cl2 and brine. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 and the combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4. The crude material was purified by silica chromatography (0-10% MeOH/CH2Cl2) to afford 1.2 g of ethyl 2-(2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-3-phenylpropanoyloxy)benzoate. Mass calculated for C235H27NO6=413.46. found: [M+Na]+=437.1. partitioned between CH2Cl2 and brine The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 the combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4 The crude material was purified by silica chromatography (0-10% MeOH/CH2Cl2)

Procedure: To a solution of 2-docosa-4,7,10,13,16,19-hexaenamido-4-methylpentanoic acid (50 mg, 0.11 mmol) and ethyl 2-hydroxybenzoate (19 mg, 0.1.1 mmol) in CH3CN/THF (1:1, 0.5 mL) at −10° C. was added DCC (12 mg, 0.11 mmol) and DMAP (1 mg). The mixture was stirred (RT, 16 h), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by silica chromatography (EtOAc-PE, 0-20%) to afford ethyl 2-(2-docosa-4,7,10,13,16,19-hexaenamido-4-methylpentanoyloxy)benzoate (40 mg, 67%) as colorless oil. Mass calculated for C37H51NO5=589.80. found: [M+H]+=590.4. filtered concentrated under reduced pressure The crude product was purified by silica chromatography (EtOAc-PE, 0-20%)
