Ladderane lipids produced by anammox bacteria constitute some of the most structurally fascinating yet poorly studied molecules among biological membrane lipids. Slow growth of the producing organism and the inherent difficulty of purifying complex lipid mixtures have prohibited isolation of useful amounts of natural ladderane lipids. We have devised a highly selective total synthesis of ladderane lipid tails and a full phosphatidylcholine to enable biophysical studies on chemically homogeneous samples of these molecules. Additionally, we report the first proof of absolute configuration of a natural ladderane.

An efficient resolution of 2,3-dibromocyclohex-5-en-1,4-diol has been carried out, using Mucor miehei lipase operating in an organic solvent. The enantioforms obtained may find application in the preparation of chiral conduritols. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
