pubmed-article:3609315 | pubmed:abstractText | 1-O-Alkyl-2,3-diacyl-sn-glycerols, the major constituents of ratfish (Chimaera monstrosa) liver oil, serve as starting material for the preparation of 1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines, 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines, 1-O-alkyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines, and 1-O-alkyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-beta-D-glucopyranosides. Catalytic tritiation of the unsaturated alkyl moieties in these biologically active ether lipids affords the corresponding 3H-labeled substances. | lld:pubmed |
