Figure 2.
Gas-liquid chromatogram of hydrocarbons prepared by LiAlH4 from a model ether lipid, 2,3-di-O-geranylgeranyl-sn-glycerol-1-phosphate. Panels A and B are the chromatograms of samples before and after reductive cleavage, respectively. The peaks eluted at 11.9 min and 3.0 min were the internal standard, n-hexacosane and geranylgeranyl chain-derived hydrocarbon (2,6,10,14-tetramethylhexadec-2,6,10,14-tetraene), respectively.
