Abstract

The synthesis of cyclic sphingosine 1,3-phosphate through photolytic methodology is described starting from D-erythro-sphingosine. A bifunctional phosphorylating reagent, 2-cyanoethyl N,N-diisopropylchlorophosphoramidite, is used to introduce the cyclic 1,3-phosphate moiety. This procedure generates cSPP in four steps and in 36% overall yield.
