ChemInform Abstract
Detailed synthetic studies reveal that none of the diastereomers of type (II) corresponds to the structure of the serine-containing lipid flavolipin. However, the spectral data are consistent with (I) and its antipode. The macrophage stimulation of (I) corresponds to that of the natural compound, whereas the enantiomer is found to be inactive.
