(S)-1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine - Introduction
(S)-Dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine ((S)- DPPE) is a chiral isomer with the chemical formula C39H78NO8P. It is the dipalmitoyl ester of phosphatidylethanolamine, a structural unit of a phospholipid molecule.
(S)-DPPE appears as a white or pale yellow solid in solution and is soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane and methanol. It is a surfactant and a micelle-forming agent that can form micelle structures in liquid crystalline or colloidal self-assembly systems.
(S)-DPPE can be used for drug delivery, nanoparticle encapsulation and other applications in the biological and medical fields. Because of its good compatibility and controllable self-assembly properties, it is often used as a basic material for the construction of drug delivery systems.
The method of preparing (S)-DPPE is generally prepared by reacting palmitic acid with diethyl phosphate under alkaline conditions to prepare dipalmitoyl phosphate, and then reacting with ethanolamine to form (S)-DPPE.
Regarding safety information, there are no clear reports of toxicity or danger. However, as a chemical, please follow the appropriate laboratory safety procedures when handling, and use and handle according to the specific situation.
