Abstract

Diacylglycerophosphocholines, containing various α-branched fatty acids, were synthesized and purified to homogeneity. The influence of the α-branched acyl chains on the monolayer packing properties of these phospholipids was studied by the Langmuir-Blodgett film balance technique. NMR investigations were used for conformational studies, including the determination of rotamer populations about the dihedral angles ( θ 2, θ 4 and α 1) in the glycerol region of the diacylglycerophosphocholines.
