General Description

The chemical "2-[3,4-dihexadecanoyloxy-2,5-bis(hexadecanoyloxymethyl)oxolan-2-yl]oxy-3,5-dihexadecanoyloxy-6-(hexadecanoyloxymethyl)oxan-4-yl] hexadecanoate" is a complex compound with multiple long carbon chains. It contains hexadecanoate groups, which are derived from hexadecanoic acid, and oxolan-2-yl and oxan-4-yl groups, which are derived from oxolane and oxane molecules, respectively. [2-[3,4-dihexadecanoyloxy-2,5-bis(hexadecanoyloxymethyl)oxolan-2-yl]oxy-3,5-dihexadecanoyloxy-6-(hexadecanoyloxymethyl)oxan-4-yl] hexadecanoate is likely to be a lipid or a fatty acid derivative due to the presence of long hydrocarbon chains. Its molecular structure suggests that it is a highly non-polar and hydrophobic molecule, which indicates that it may be involved in functions related to cell membranes or energy storage in living organisms.

Membrane perturbing properties of sucrose polyesters

Sucrose polyester (SPE), in the form of sucrose octaesters and sucrose hexaesters of palmitic (16:0), stearic (18:0), oleic (18:1cis), and linoleic (18:2cis) acids, have many uses. Applications include: A non-caloric fat substitute, detoxification agent, and oral contrast agent for human abdominal (MRI) magnetic resonance imaging. However, it has been shown that the ingestion of SPE was shown to generate a depletion of physiologically important lipidic vitamins and other lipophilic molecules. In order to better understand, at the molecular level, the type of interaction between SPE and lipid membrane, we have, first synthesized different type of labelled and non-labelled SPEs. Secondly, we have studied the effect of SPEs on multilamellar dispersions of dielaidoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DEPE) and dipalmitoylphosphocholine (DPPC) as a function of temperature, SPE composition and concentration. The effects of SPEs were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction, 2H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. At low concentration (a cubic phase in a composition dependent manner. At the same low concentration, SPEs in DPPC induce the formation of a non-bilayer phase as seen by 31P NMR. Order parameter measurements of DPPC-d62/SPE mixtures show that the SPE effect on the DPPC monolayer thickness is dependent on the SPE, concentration, chains length and saturation level. At higher concentration (≥10 mol%) SPE are very potent DEPE bilayer to HII phase transition promoters, although at that concentration the SPE have lost the ability to form cubic phases. SPEs have profound effects on the phase behaviour of model membrane systems, and may be important to consider when developing current and potential industrial and medical applications.
