✦ Synopsis
The 24nyl ~hy~~~l-~~ 1. was syatbe&i and testesI for i~ibi~ of ~~~-~ Iyase. The carboo akeletoa was wepared by acylacion of a methioaiae imine with N-metboxy-N-methyl palmitatnide. The vinyl group was generated by thermal sulbxide eliiination. Reduction of both carbonyl groups and &protection gave P-vinyl dihydrosphingosine. The phosphate group was intruduced by means of bis(2-cyanoethyl)-N,Nv-diisopropyl-phospltoramidite as monofunctional phosphitylation reagent. Sphmgolipids constitnte a large class of biologicaly important compo~&. Both glycosldes (cerebrosides, gangliosides) and non-glyccsylated derivatives (sphingomyelin, ceramides) are imporumt constituents of cellular membranes 1. The principal component of sphingolipids is almost invariably the long chain base, sphingosine. Kecently several reparts have shown sphiigosine to be a potent inhibitor of the regulatory enzyme pnxein kinase C (PKC) both in vlvo and ia V&V 2-In additiou sphingosine-l-phosphate causes rapid mtnslocation of calcium f-mm intracelh~ku stores and a regulatory role has been suggested for this compound 3.

## Abstract Readily available D‐__erythro__‐azidosphingosine is transformed into 3‐__O__‐silyl‐protected derivative 6. Reduction of the azido group afforded 3‐__O__‐silyl‐protected sphingosine 7 which was either converted into __N__‐Fmoc‐protected derivative 8 or via N‐acylation into ceramide deriv
A novel regioselective synthesis of D-erythro -sphingosine 1-phosphate and D-erythro -ceramide 1-phosphate is described. The synthesis is based upon (1) in situ oxidative phosphorylation of the primary hydroxyl group in N-Boc-D-erythro-sphingosine utilizing trimethyl phosphite and carbon tetrabromid
## Abstract Sphingosine 1‐phosphate (S1P) is the natural ligand for a specific family of G protein‐coupled receptors (‐Rs). The type 1 S1P‐R (S1P~1~) is important for lymphocyte egress, and blood‐borne S1P as the natural ligand for S1P~1~ is involved in the maintenance of lymphocyte circulation. Th
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (SPP) is a sphingolipid metabolite which has novel dual actions acting as both an intracellular second messenger and a ligand for a family of G protein-coupled receptors. This paper describes a rapid enzymatic method to quantify mass levels of SPP in serum, mammalian tissues,
