(S)-1,2,4-Butanetriol Usage And Synthesis

Description

(S)-(-)-1,2,4-Butanetriol can be prepared via reduction of (S)-malic acid in the presence of borane-dimethyl sulfide. (S)-(-)-1,2,4-Butanetriol may be used as a starting material in the enantioselective total syntheses of (+)-azimine and (+)-carpaine. It can also be used to prepare the organic building blocks (+)-3,4-epoxy-1-butanol, (2S,4S)-4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-ferrocenyl-1,3-dioxan, (S)-1,2,4-triacetoxybutane via acetylation with acetic anhydride, and (S)-1,2,4-tris-(3,5-dinitrobenzoy1oxy)butane via esterification with 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride, and so on.

Description

β-Py-C10-HPC is a violet-fluorescent analog of phosphocholine with the fluorophore on the lipophilic sn-2 acyl chain and a phosphocholine headgroup, and it is used to study the mechanism of spontaneous phospholipid transfer between single-walled phospholi

Chemical Properties

clear colorless viscous liquid

Uses

Glycerophospholipids act as regulators of various enzyme activities, and can be used as biological markers to indicate pathological states.

Definition

ChEBI: 2-deoxyerythritol is a secondary alcohol.

Biological Activity

The DC-Chol/DOPE blend is widely useful in liposome preparation as it influences the process of encapsulation. 1:2 or 3:2 is a preferred molar ratio for DC-Chol/DOPE liposomes.

Excitation / Emission Maximum

342 nm/376 nm
