Synthesis of (4E, 8E, 2S, 3R, 2'RN-2'-hydroxyhexadecanoyl-1-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-9-methyl-4, 8-sphingadienine, the fruiting-inducing cerebroside in a …
The title compound was synthesized by employing (R)-2-aminohexadecanoic acid, D- glucose and (S)-serine as the chiral sources, and the synthetic sample was found to be chemically and biologically identical with the fruiting-inducing cerebroside isolated from Schizophyllum commune.
