1,2-Dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DMPE) is a lipid found in the cell membranes of bacteria and human nervous tissues. DMPE membranes are more viscous than phosphatidylcholine. It is assumed that due to the oxidative stress placed on cells from phosphatidylethanolamine-linked products that their presence in foods is responsible for diseases like cancer and diabetes.

1,2-Dipalmitoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine is a phospholipid with two palmitic acids and is the racemic mixture of Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (also known as Colfosceril palmitate or DPPC). The phosphocholine head is sensitive to electric charges at the membrane surface when bound to pure phospholipids. When added to a solution containing charged ions, this sensitivity can shift the nitrogen cation away from a lack of positive charge or towards a positive charge in solution. In a research environment, it is useful in studying changes of biological membranes and liposomes. Because of its ability to form simple phospholipid bilayers, it is useful in computer modeling of bilayers in dynamic situations. Modeling can also be extended to interactions between DPPC and other biologically active molecules (like pharmaceuticals) as an analog for the same naturally occurring process. It is also useful in the formation of reconstituted HDL particles.

1,2-Dipalmitoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine is a phospholipid and reagent used in chemical synthesis.

1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine or DPPE is a phospholipid component of the cell membrane. It is used in membrane models and is part of the glycerophosphoethanolamine family. DPPE has been shown to cause competitive hydrogen bonding of amine groups with phosphate/carbonyl groups or water. Additionally, DPPE has been studied along with cholesterol, showing cholesterol’s ability to induce DPPE monolayer condensation when calcium ions are present.

1,2-O-Isopropylidene-sn-glycerol is a reagent used in chemical synthesis. It is used in the preparation of tetraoxaspiroundecanes, diglycerides and glyceryl phosphates.

1,2:5,6-Di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-glucofuranose is a reagent used for chemical synthesis. 1,2:5,6-Di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-glucofuranose (or diacetone-D-glucose (DAG)) can be used to create racemically pure alkane- and arenesulfinyl chlorides with a tertiary amine. Oxidation and reduction can lead to an allofuranose derivative.

1,3-Diphenylacetone is a reagent in many chemical synthesis applications.

1,8-Octanediol is a diol and fatty alcohol. It is typically used as a monomer in the synthesis of polymers like polyesters and polyurethanes, along with a preservative due to its bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties. Biodegradable films are also synthesized with 1,8-Octanediol.

1-(4-Nitrophenyl)glycerol is a useful additive for controlling swarming of Proteus bacteria on culture media.

GoldBio’s 1-Acetyl-3-carboxaldehyde is a bifunctional aromatic compound used as a building block in organic synthesis, heterocycle construction, and fluorescent dye development.
