  • Title: Reactivity of plasmalogens: kinetics of acid-catalyzed hydrolysis.
    Author: Frosolono MF, Rapport MM.
    Journal: J Lipid Res; 1969 Sep; 10(5):504-6. PubMed ID: 4309189.
    Abstract:
    The acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the alpha,-unsaturated ether group of two plasmalogens, lysophosphatidal choline and lysophosphatidal ethanolamine, and several model compounds (isobutyl vinyl ether, 1-butenyl ethyl ether, and dihydropyran) was studied by determining the true second-order rate constants. The results indicate that the chemical reactivity of the substituted vinyl ether group in plasmalogens is not appreciably affected by the presence of a bulky substituent on the -carbon. Activation energies, enthalpies, and entropies were also determined (from measurements of the rate constants at different temperatures).
