title: Release of diacylglycerol moieties from various glycosyl diacylglycerols.
abstract: Periodic acid oxidation in methanol followed by incubation with 1, 1-dimethylhydrazine results in release of diacylglycerols from 1,2-diacyl-3-glycosyl-sn-glycerols. During hydrazinolysis of oxidized monogalactosyl diacylglycerol, an intermediate hydrazone derivative was observed which was isolated and identified. The diacylglycerols recovered are 1,2-diacyl isomers containing the same fatty acid mixtures as the intact glycolipids. The yields of diacylglycerols released from plant monogalactosyl-, digalactosyl-, and sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerols were in the range of 30-50%. The method may be used for analysis of molecular species and for preparative purposes.
