| Application: | Palmitoyl chloride can be used: • To introduce carbon chain in glycosphingolipid galactosyl ceramide through stereoselective olefin cross-metathesis. • To prepare monoacyl and 1,3-symmetrical triacylglycerols via regioselective ring opening of an oxirane. It can also be used in the total synthesis of: • Hericenone J and 5′ -deoxohericenone C (hericene A). • Seminolipid. • Mycobactin S and T equivalents having catechol-glycine group instead of phenol-oxazoline of the naturally occurring mycobactins. |
