Sodium benzyl (2,3-bis(stearoyloxy)propyl) phosphate is a synthetic, anionic phospholipid analog with two C18:0 saturated fatty acid chains and a benzyl-protected phosphate headgroup. It forms rigid, negatively charged bilayers, useful for membrane modeling, liposome formulation, and surface functionalization. The benzyl group can be removed to expose a free phosphate, enabling conversion to a biologically active phospholipid derivative.
