Conclusions
-
1.
A new total synthesis of R-α-L-alanyl-γ-L-phosphatidylglycerin, optically active at all the asymmetric centers, was carried out.
-
2.
A comparison of the synthetic preparation with the lipoamino acid fromClostridium welchii indicates that the latter is S-1-(L-phosphatidyl)-3-alanylglycerin.
