Choline phosphatide, ozonides

The ozonides of choline and ethanolamine phosphatides subjected to reduction with PhsP yield the corresponding core aldehydes. After hydrolysis with phospholipase C to eliminate the polar group and silylation with trimethylsilyl chloride, the core aldehydes can be determined by GLC-FID using temperature programming to high temperatures . ... 

The ozonides of choline and ethanolamine phosphatides and triglycerides can be subjected to reduction with triphenylphosphine to yield the corresponding core aldehydes, and further derivatized to the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones (DNP). The core aldehydes and their DNP derivatives can be separated by HPLC and characterized by various techniques, including EI-MS and TS-MS of positive and negative ions . See also Section VHI.E.
