Research Abstract |
Glycerolipids are essential substances for sustaining our life. Although the number of their chiral carbon is only one like most of amino acids, their stereochemistry has not been assigned with ease. In order to establish a new analytical method for determination of their absolute configurations, optically pure glycerolipids and related compounds were prepared by chemical synthesis, and subjected to the "Vibrational Circular Dichromism" measurement. The precise analysis of their spectral data resulted in a discovery of an empirical rule on the stereochemistry of diacylglycerolipids including glycolipids for the first time.
