, p. 5281 - 5283 (2003)
Phytosphingosine was synthesized from the commercially available D-2,3-O-isopropylidene-D-lyxofuranose in 28% overall yield by a six-step procedure. This procedure is expedient and flexible for introduction of other lipid moieties on the phytosphingosine structure to make a variety of derivatives that can support the further exploration of their related biological functions.
