A process is described for generating conjugates of lipids and biologically active agents to produce compositions having therapeutic utility, such as drug delivery vehicles. The process involves mixing the reactive lipid with an appropriate amount of diketene to form an acetoacetylated lipid which is then isolated, dissolved in a suitable medium, and mixed with a nucleophilic-containing biologically active agent to form a biologically active agent-lipid conjugate. Alternatively, the acetoacetylated lipid can be mixed with a polyamine to form a cationic lipid.
