Azido-erythro-sphingosines is an intermidate for synthesis of lipid molecules with two hydroxyl groups and a terminal azide group. Azide (N3) group can react with alkyne, BCN, DBCO via Click Chemistry. The hydroxyl groups enable further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups. Azido-erythro-sphingosine is a derivative of Sphingosine, which is a selective inhibitor of protein kinase C activity and phorbol dibutyrate binding in vitro in human platelets. Reagent grade, for research purpose.
