Abstract

AbstractThe chemical structures of an acidic phospholipid originally isolated from equine intestine by Vogt and of a phospholipid isolated from rabbit kidney medulla by Walaszek are shown by total synthesis to be similar mixtures of 2‐alkyl (and alkenyl)‐4‐hydroxymethyl‐1,3‐dioxolane‐dihydrogen phosphate esters. In these materials, the alkyl residues derive primarily from oleyl, palmityl and linoleyl aldehydes. The smooth muscle contracting activity observed in the natural substances is shown to reside exclusively in the oleyl aldehyde derivative.
