Conversion of erythro-D-sphinganine to its [1-2H1] and [1-3H1] derivatives.

A convenient chemical synthesis of erythro-D-[1-2H1] sphinganine and erythro-D-[1-3H1]sphinganine is described. The approach utilizes a stereospecific starting material (natural sphinganine prepared from bovine brain sphingomyelin) and applies a sequence of selective protection of functional groups...
