Abstract

The N and 0-acylations of C20-phytosphingosine anhydro base (Ia) , C20 -anhydro cere'brin (Ila) and C20 -cerebrin (IIIa) with longchain fatty acid chlorides have been examined. The reactions have been carried out in both quinoline and N,N-dimethyl formamide. The ceramides and ceramide esters thus obtained are represented by formulas I-III.
