Abstract

Diacylgylecero-3-phosphocholine derivatives having an imidazole ligand at the terminal of an acyl-chain on the 2nd position of glycerol backbone were synthesized. The amphiphilic lignds formed lipid bilayers with phospholipids and the heme complexes gave oxygen complexes in water (pH 7.4) at 25° C.
