Synthetic phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PtdInsPn) derivatives play a pivotal role in broadening our understanding of PtdInsPnmetabolism. However, the development of such tools is reliant on efficient enantioselective and regioselective synthetic strategies. Here we report the development of a divergent synthetic route applicable to the synthesis of deuterated PtdIns4Pand PtdIns5Pderivatives. The synthetic strategy developed involves a key enzymatic desymmetrisation step using Lipozyme TL-IM. In addition, we optimised the large-scale synthesis of deuteratedmyo-inositol, allowing for the preparation of a series of saturated and unsaturated deuterated PtdIns4Pand PtdIns5Pderivatives. Experiments in MCF7 cells demonstrated that these deuterated probes enable quantification of the corresponding endogenous phospholipids in a cellular setting. Overall, these deuterated probes will be powerful tools to help improve our understanding of the role played by PtdInsPnin physiology and disease.

Studies of cellular signal transduction mechanisms involving receptor-mediated generation of inositol phosphates and phosphorylated phosphatidylinositols require easy access to these naturally occurring products. Although numerous synthetic methods have been developed during the past decade, most of these methods suffer from excessive length and lack of generality. In this work we describe the comprehensive and uniform synthesis of all naturally occurring phosphatidylinositols such as phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, 4-phosphate, 5-phosphate, 3,4-bisphosphate, 3,5-bisphosphate, 4,5-bisphosphate, and 3,4,5-trisphosphate, featuring both saturated and unsaturated fatty acid chains.
