Abstract
Racemic 2-O-[4‘(9‘ ‘-N-purinyl)butyl] myo-inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphate) 8 was synthesized starting from myo-inositol. Substitution of position 2 by an alkyl side chain was rendered possible by inversion of the chair conformation of the inositol ring by means of an orthoester. The final compound is a full agonist with the same order of potency as d-myo-inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphate).
