Synthesis of cyclopentano-N-methylphosphatidylethanolamines: aminolysis during the use of methylamine.

Monomethylamine and N-benzyl-N-methylamine were used as nucleophiles in the amination of the bromoethylester of cyclopentano-phosphatidic acid. The former reagent led to extensive aminolysis and the quantitative formation of N-methylpalmitamide, rather than the desired cyclopentano-phosphatidyl-N-me...
