Draw the structure of 1-palmitoyl-2-sn-glycero-3-pho…

This name looks kind of strange: if there is no substituent at the 2 position then it should be 1-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoinositol… or the name of the 2 substituent is missing. uming that the former is correct it would be CH3(CH2)14COOCH2CH(OH)CH2OPO(O-)OC6H11O5… The similar structure is given here: a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphatidylinositol" rel="nofollow"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphatidy…/a only it contains the 2-Acyl substituent as well.
