Abstract
Eight 1-O-Alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines (lyso platelet-activating factor; lyso PAF) were isolated from the Chinese crude drug "Jiryu, " dried body walls of the earthworm, Pheretima asiatica MICHAELSEN (Megascolecidae). They were identified by 1H-NMR and mass spectrometry as 1-O-hexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (1), 1-O-pentadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (2), 1-O-tetradecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (3), 1-O-13-methyltetradecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (4), 1-O-14-methylpentadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (5), 1-O-15-methylhexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (6), 1-O-heptadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (7) and 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (8).
