Application

Myristoyl chloride was used in the synthesis of 6-azafulleroid-6-deoxy-2,3-di-O-myristoylcellulose. It was used in N-acylation of chitosan to introduce hydrophobicity for use as matrix for drug delivery. It was used in the synthesis of semi-crystalline dendritic poly(ether-amide) derivatives.

6-Azafulleroid-6-deoxy-2,3-di-O-myristoylcellulose (3) was synthesized from 6-azido-6-deoxycellulose (1) by two reaction steps. The myristoylation of compound 1 with myristoyl chloride/pyridine proceeded smoothly to give 6-azido-6-deoxy-2,3-di-O-myristoylcellulose (2) in 97.0% yield. The reaction of compound 2 with fullerene (C(60)) was carried out by
