Chemical synthesis of d-ribo-phytosphingosine-1-phosphate, a potential modulator of cellular processes
d-erythro-Sphingosine-1-phosphate (2), an intermediate in sphingosine metabolism, shows a diversity of biological activities. Comparable roles might be anticipated for d-ribo-phytosphingosine-1-phosphate (1). We describe an efficient three-step chemical synthesis of 1 from d-ribo-phytosphingosine. O...
