The low pH environments characteristic of endosomal compartments and ischemic tissues provide an intrinsic pathway for triggering site-specific contents release from appropriately designed delivery vehicles. Accordingly, research in this group has focused on the design, synthesis and application of novel acid-sensitive lipids that will undergo facile lamellar (L-alpha) to hexagonal (H-II) phase transitions within these acidic sites. Previously, it has been demonstrated that plasmenylcholine-type lipids have: excellent acid hydrolysis and contents release kinetics (Gerasimov et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 1324 (1997) 200-214; Rui et al., J. Am. Chem. Sec. 120 (1998) 11213-11218). This paper describes the synthesis of three new acid sensitive lipids, based on a chiral 1,2-di-O-(1Z',9Z'-octadecadienyl)-sn-glycerol (6) platform, displaying phosphocholine (7), poly(ethyleneoxide) (8), and O-carbamoyl-N-diethylenetriamine (10) headgroups. Intermediate 6 was obtained in 28% overall yield via a six step synthesis from (S)-(+)-2,2-dimethyl-1,2-dioxolane-4-methanol. Subsequent conversion to the final products was acheived in moderate (7 and 10) to excellent yields (8). (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
