The mixture was heated to reflux for 2.5-4 h (even when unreacted starting material was still detectable, longer reaction time did not result in higher yields). The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was subjected to column chromatography. NBD-dimethylsphingosine was purified by chromatography on sephadex LH20 followed by preparative HPLC. NBD-sphingomyelin was purified by preparative HPLC.
