The tilt angle of the hydrocarbon chains to the planes of a dipalmitoryl lecithin single bilayer and multilayers were estimated by the asymmetry of the electron diffraction patterns of respective hydrated specimens. The chains in a single bilayer were found to be perpendicular to the bilayer plane,

In the crystal structure of methyl (Z)-8,9-dideoxy-l,2:3,4:6,7-tri-0-isopropylidene-a-~-fhreo-ogalacto-dec-8-enopyranuronate (lo), the allylic system adopts an eclipsed conformation with the smallest group, H-7, at the adjacent stereocentre eclipsing the olefinic double bond. The allylic system of m
Gossypol (1,1 ',6,6 ',7,7'-hexahydroxy-5,5 ' -diisopropyl-3,3 '-dimethyl[2,2'-binaphthalene]-8,8' dicarboxaldehyde) previously used as a male oral contraceptive is an amphiphilic compound. At low concentrations, it is expected that gossypol would intercalate into the phospholipid bilayers. To demons
