Synthesis of optically active myo-inositol derivatives starting from phytic acid

Phytic acid treated with Baker's yeast gave d- myo-inositol-1,2,6-tris(phosphate) (α-trinositol) which was transformed into (+)- d-1,2-O- isopropylidene-myo- inositol and (−)- d-3,4,5- tri-O- benzyl-myo- inositol , two key intermediates in the synthesis of optically active myo-inositol derivati...

Description
Summary:Phytic acid treated with Baker's yeast gave d- myo-inositol-1,2,6-tris(phosphate) (α-trinositol) which was transformed into (+)- d-1,2-O- isopropylidene-myo- inositol and (−)- d-3,4,5- tri-O- benzyl-myo- inositol , two key intermediates in the synthesis of optically active myo-inositol derivatives and related compounds. Phytic acid was transformed into (+) d-1,2-O-isopropylidene myo-inositol and (−)- d-3,4,5-tri-O-benyl myo-inositol
