CHEMICAL SYNTHESIS

Procedures for the synthesis and purification of this compound, other 20 isoprenoid diphosphates and methanediphosphate analogues from the corresponding alcohols are found in (Ref. 0014). The synthesis of isoprenoid (phosphinylmethyl)phosphonates are described in (Ref. 0015) . Negative ion fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS) has been used to obtain mass spectra of the naturally occurring isoprenoid metabolites including isopentenyl diphosphate, dimethylallyl diphosphate, geranyl diphosphate, and farnesyl diphosphate, presqualene diphosphate, and of several synthetic analogs including methylene-bridged diphosphates, bisphosphates, and nitrogen-containing analogs.(Ref. 0023) The study of plant polyisoprenoid alcohols including polyprenols and dolichols has been reviewed in (Ref. 0024).
