The synthesis of twelve enantiopure structured triacylglycerols (TAGs) of the ABC type possessing three different fatty acids is described by a six-step chemoenzymatic approach starting from (S)-solketal. Eight of the TAGs possess two different saturated fatty acyl groups located in the sn-1 and sn-2 positions with an unsaturated fatty acyl group in the remaining sn-3 position of the glycerol skeleton, whereas the remaining four possess two different saturated acyl groups in the terminal sn-1 and sn-3 positions with an unsaturated acyl group in the sn-2 position. The former group was synthesised by a six-step chemoenzymatic route involving a highly regioselective immobilised Candida antarctica lipase. The second group was prepared by a similar six-step approach, that required two separate lipase steps. Such enantiopure TAGs are strongly demanded as standards for enantiospecific analysis of intact TAGs in fats and oils.

Plasmalogen lysophosphatidylethanolamine (pLPE) had been identified as a self antigen for natural killer T cells (NKT cells). It is very important in the development, maturation and activation of NKT cells in thymus. Besides, pLPE is a novel type of antigen for NKT cells. To evaluate the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of this new antigen, pLPE and its analogues referred to different aliphatic chains and linkages at the sn-1 position of the glycerol backbone were synthesized, and the biological activities of these analogues was characterized. It is discovered that the linkages between phosphate and lipid moiety are not important for the antigens' activities. The pLPE analogues 1, 3, 4, 7 and 9, which have additional double bonds on lipid parts, were identified as new NKT agonists. Moreover, the analogues 4, 7 and 9 were discovered as potent Th2 activators for NKT cells.
Pheromone synthesis. Part 253: Synthesis of the racemates and enantiomers of triglycerides of male Drosophila fruit flies with special emphasis on the preparation of enantiomerically pure 1-monoglycerides

The racemates and enantiomers of triglycerides 1aee (2,3-ditigloyloxypropyl esters of palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, oleic, and linoleic acids) of male Drosophila fruit flies were synthesized in three steps from the racemate and enantiomers of 2,3-acetoneglycerol (2) via 1-monoglycerides 4aee derived from the above fatty acids. Appropriate conditions were established for the preparation of enantiomerically pure 1-monoglycerides 4aee, and their enantiomeric purities were determined by NMR analysis of the corresponding bis-(R)-MTPA esters.
