Abstract
A general route to phospho- and sphingolipids that incorporate an alkyne in the phosphocholine headgroup is described. The strategy preserves the ammonium functionality of the phosphocholine and can be easily modified to introduce desired functional groups at the N-acyl chain. The targets accessible with this strategy provide a bioorthogonal handle for postsynthetic introduction of fluorophores or other labeling agents with aqueous phase chemistry. We report the synthesis of sphingomyelin derivatives that incorporate a fluorophore and an alkyne. The modified sphingolipids retain activity as substrates for sphingomyelinase, making these compounds viable probes of enzymatic activity. Importantly, the strategy allows modification of the lipid across the phosphodiester, making the alkyne a potential probe of sphingomyelinase activity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
