Alkylphosphocholine

Alkylphosphocholines are phospholipid-like molecules that have been synthesised, which have remarkable biological and therapeutic activities.[1][2] They are phosphocholine esters of aliphatic long chain alcohols differing in chain length, unsaturation and position of the cis-double bond.[3]
