Abstract
Using Verkade's method for the preparation of DL-α-phosphatidic acids, optically active dipalmitoyl-L-α-phosphatidic acid and its derivatives were prepared in good yield. The free dipalmitoyl-L-α-phosphatidic acid and its dimethyl ester were identical in melting point and specific rotation with the same compounds originally prepared by Baer using an alternate synthesis.
