Synthesis and properties of 35S, 14C and 3H labeled S-alkyl glycerol ethers and derivatives

Radioactive S-alkyl glycerol ethers have been synthesized with ³⁵S, ¹⁴C and ³H labels as well as ³H/³⁵S double labels.The synthesized compounds were converted to various derivatives which can serve to characterize the S-alkyl glycerol ethers. These included the isopropChemical analysis, IR, NMR, zonal TLC profile scans and GLC showed all the products to be > 99% pure.The GLC behaviour of the aldehyde and acetate derivatives of both S-alkyl glycerol ethers and O-alkyl glycerol ethers on EGSS-X was compared.
