Abstract Alkenyl ether analogues of phosphatidylglycerol (plasmenylglycerol), bisphosphatidylglycerol (cardiolipin) (plasmenylglycerolphosphatidic acid), monoglycosyldiglyceride and diglycosyldiglyceride were isolated from the polar lipids of Clostridium acetobutylicum and characterized by chemical analyses and degradation. The position of the alkenyl ether bond (at C-1) and of the acyl ester bond (at C-2) as well as the configuration at C-2 of the phospholipids are the same as of the alkenyl ether phospholipids known so far. The alkenyl ether analogue of monoglycosyldiglyceride contains a galactosyl residue, that of diglycosyldiglyceride a glucosyl-galactosyl residue, glucosyl forming the terminal unit.
