Abstract

1,2-Dihexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DHPE) is one type of glycerophospholipids, and it has a wide range of application in biology. A new and efficient method was developed to synthesis DHPE using (S)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol, hexadecanol and ethanolamine as starting materials. 1,2-Dihexadecyl-sn-glycerol and N-Boc-etha-nolamine were synthesized as two key intermediates, which were coupled under condition of Still-Gennari reagent. Then Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction condition was applied to deprotect methyl acetate group of glycerophospholipid efficiently. The target compound DHPE was obtained in 32% overall yield by 8 steps.
