Sphingolipids are well-known cellular components of all higher eukaryotes and have attracted renewed interest with the finding that erythro-d-sphingosine 1a) and its derivatives, such as ceramides N-fatty acyl sphingosines) and sphinosine 1-O-phosphate, have important roles in higher mammals as™ first messengers∫.[1] Highly modified sphingolipids, such as the sphingofungins,[2] occur in lower invertebrates and microbes and may also function as inhibitors of various pathways in mammalian sphingolipid biosynthesis.¿)-Rhizochalin 2), an antimicrobial galactopyranosyl pseudodimeric α, ω-bipolar sphingolipid, was isolated from the calcareous sponge Rhizochalina incrustata,[3] collected near Madagascar. Although the constitutional structure of 2 was established from spectroscopic and degradative analysis, the stereostructure remained undefined.Configurational analysis of sphingosine diasteromers by circular dichroism CD) has been reported.[4, 5] We have previously devised a CD method for α, ω-bis-sphingoid bases that exploits deconvolution of superposed exciton couplings in the CD spectrum of the corresponding tetrabenzoyl derivatives [6] and we applied this to the antifungal agent oceanapiside 3),[7] a related α, ω-sphingolipid isolated from a temperate-water marine sponge, Oceanapia phillipensis Dendy 1895 Haplosclerida, Phloeodictyidae). The technique is noteworthy for simplicity, particularly with respect to dimeric amino alkanols, ample sensitivity% 50 nmol), and complementarity with other CD methods for the configurational analysis of sphingolipids.[4, 5, 8] Whereas the chain termini in 3 have dissimilar substitution, the pseudosymmetric structure of 2 presents the added
