The total synthesis of D-erythro-sphingosine (9) was performed by a chirospecific method starting from D-galactose via an azidosphingosine intermediate to give highly homogeneous ( > 99.9% C18:1) sphingosine base (9) which contained no observable olefin isomerization by product and was demonstrated to be optically pure by a novel method utilizing Mosher's acid. Ceramide (10) was prepared from this sphingosine (9) with highly homogeneous (99.8% C16:0) palmitic acid by two methods. The cerebroside glucosylceramide (23) was the next sphingolipid in this series to be synthesized in a highly homogeneous form. These three sphingolipids are currently being used for biophysical studies of the structures of their hydrated bio-molecular assemblies.
