SYNTHESIS OF -YL-2-O-PALMITOYL-3-O-PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINYLGLYCEROL AND -YL-2-O-PALMITOYL-3-O-PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINYLGLYCEROL - A NEW ANTIFUNGAL PHOSPHOCHOLINE
De. Bierer et al., SYNTHESIS OF -YL-2-O-PALMITOYL-3-O-PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINYLGLYCEROL AND -YL-2-O-PALMITOYL-3-O-PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINYLGLYCEROL - A NEW ANTIFUNGAL PHOSPHOCHOLINE, Journal of organic chemistry, 60(23), 1995, pp. 7646-7653
The discovery of a new of antifungal agent, a glycosylated phosphatidy
lcholine, is reported, and the syntheses of the first two members of t
his series, -yl-2-O-palmitoyl-3-O-phosphatidylcholinylglycerol and yl-
2-O-palmitoyl-3-O-phosphatidylcholinylglycerol, are described. Their a
ctivities against the pathogenic fungi Candida albicans, Cryptococcus
neoformans, and Aspergillus fumigatus are also reported.
