Abstract

Inositols have been converted into their triphenylsilyl derivatives. In all cases only five substituents could be introduced, the remaining free hydroxy group being hindered. The derivative of myo-inositol and one of two of neo-inositol were found to be in the inverted chair conformation, but those of other inositols are in the normal chair form. The structures of two penta-substituted derivatives have been determined by X-ray crystallography.
