General description

D-ribo-phytosphingosine or phytosphingosine is a phospholipid found naturally in the stratum corneum. It is found both in its free form and as a fragment of the major fraction of ceramides.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phytosphingosine exhibits cutaneous anti-microbial barrier function. It acts as a natural anti-inflammatory agent. PHS stimulates keratinocyte differentiation. Thus, it is used as an active component in the cosmetic formulations. PHS is implicated in maintaining the structural integrity of the membranes. In addition, it also controls cellular growth and mediates the heat stress response of yeast.

An asymmetric synthesis of d-ribo-phytosphingosine (1) was achieved by utilizing the ProPhenol (12)-catalyzed alkynylation of unsaturated aldehyde 8 to afford allylic propargylic alcohol (S)-6 followed by asymmetric epoxidation and opening of propargylic epoxy alcohol anti-5 with NaN(3)/NH(4)Cl.
