✦ Synopsis


Spin-labelled lipids are used in electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy for studying microenvironments within biological membranes. Various classes are available, based on the use of N-oxyldimethyloxazolidinyl (or similar groups) as spin label. The synthesis is described of a new type of spin-labelled lipid, in which a monoacylglycerol is the lipid moiety. This compound was obtained (in 58% yield of theory) by reacting 12-(N-oxyldimethyloxazolidinyl)stearic acid with glycidol in aqueous sodium chloride at 900C. The product was uniform on TLC and its identity was confirmed by IR and ESR spectroscopy.

A spin-labeled lysolecithin, 1-[ 12'-(N-oxyi-4",4"-dimethyloxazolidine)-stearoyl] -snglycero-3-phosphorylcholine, has been synthesized in which the spin is covalently attached to its fatty acyl chain. The electron spin resonance spectra of this lysolecithin in an aqueous solution generally showed s
