Reaction Steps

A mixture of (2,3-bis-octadec-9-enyloxypropyl)-dimethylamine 4 (378 mg, 0.61 mmol) (synthesised from octadec-9-enyl mesylate and 3-dimethylamino-1,2-propanediol as described previously by Hurley et al., J. Org. Chem., 2004, 69, 980-984) and 3 (335 mg, 1.07 mmol) in acetone (5 ml) was stirred in a sealed-tube at 80° C. for 48 h. After cooling, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography on silica (gradient; 5% to 10% methanol in dichloromethane) gave ME42 as an orange oil (140 mg, 27%).
