Abstract
1,3,4,6-Tetrakis- and 1,3,4,5,6-pentakis-acylmyoinositols are obtained by the controlled catalyzed acylation of myoinositol. The extent of t he substitution depends both on the reaction conditions and the struct ure of the acylating agent, including steric factors. Chromic acid oxi dation converts the aclymyoinositols into the corresponding 2-ketones. Under electron impact, the compounds undergo stepwise deacylation.
