Abstract
Synthesis of various heterocycles having fatty acid residues is described using ethyl-4-(hexadec-7-enyl)-3-oxobutanoate as starting material by reaction with different reagents. Preliminary antibacterial testing showed that the compounds ethyl-4-(hexadec-7-enyl)-3-oxobutanoate and 3-[octadec-9-ene-1-one]-chromen-2-one are the most promising.
