General description

N-24:0 Phytosphingosine or N-lignoceroyl-phytosphingosine belongs to the group of phytosphingosines. Phytosphingosine. It is widely found in membranes of fungi, plants, bacteria, marine organisms, and mammalian tissues.

Application

N-24:0 Phytosphingosine has been used to study its influence on the organization and permeability barrier properties of model lipid membrane.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lipid membranes composed of N-24:0 phytosphingosine are highly permeable for ions, small and lipophilic molecules, than those based on non-hydroxy fatty acid ceramide[NS24].

Omega-O-acylceramides (acylCer), a subclass of sphingolipids with an ultralong N-acyl chain (from 20 to 38 carbons, most usually 30 and 32 carbons), are crucial components of the skin permeability barrier. AcylCer are involved in the formation of the long periodicity

In this work, we studied model stratum corneum lipid mixtures composed of the hydroxylated skin ceramides N-lignoceroyl 6-hydroxysphingosine (Cer[NH]) and α-hydroxylignoceroyl phytosphingosine (Cer[AP]). Two model skin lipid mixtures of the composition Cer[NH] or Cer[AP], N-lignoceroyl sphingosine (Cer[NS]), lignoceric acid (C24:0)

An asymmetric synthesis of d-ribo-phytosphingosine (1) was achieved by utilizing the ProPhenol (12)-catalyzed alkynylation of unsaturated aldehyde 8 to afford allylic propargylic alcohol (S)-6 followed by asymmetric epoxidation and opening of propargylic epoxy alcohol anti-5 with NaN(3)/NH(4)Cl.
