Novel cyclic and acyclic oxazaphospholanes are described, as well as their use in the synthesis of sphingomyelin and sphingomyelin analogous. The production of synthetic sphingomyelins is also described. 2S, 3R stereoisomers of oxazaphospholanes and sphingomyelins, and synthetic methods for their preparation are described.

Sphingomyelin, intermediates thereof and methods for preparation of same

The invention encompasses synthesizing 7-(4-bromobutoxy)-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril by mixing 7-hydroxy-tetrahydroquinolinone, dibromobutane, and at least one base to form a reaction mixture; heating the reaction mixture; cooling the reaction mixture; and isolating the 7-(4-bromobutoxy)-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril from the reaction mixture. The invention also encompasses using phase transfer catalysts during the reaction.
