title: Comprehensive and uniform synthesis of all naturally occurring phosphorylated phosphatidylinositols.
abstract: Studies of cellular signal transduction mechanisms involving receptor-mediated generation of inositol phosphates and phosphorylated phosphatidylinositols require easy access to these naturally occurring products. Although numerous synthetic methods have been developed during the past decade, most of these methods suffer from excessive length and lack of generality. In this work we describe the comprehensive and uniform synthesis of all naturally occurring phosphatidylinositols such as phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, 4-phosphate, 5-phosphate, 3,4-bisphosphate, 3,5-bisphosphate, 4,5-bisphosphate, and 3,4,5-trisphosphate, featuring both saturated and unsaturated fatty acid chains.
