Synthetic phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PtdInsPn) derivatives play a pivotal role in broadening our understanding of PtdInsPnmetabolism. However, the development of such tools is reliant on efficient enantioselective and regioselective synthetic strategies. Here we report the development of a divergent synthetic route applicable to the synthesis of deuterated PtdIns4Pand PtdIns5Pderivatives. The synthetic strategy developed involves a key enzymatic desymmetrisation step using Lipozyme TL-IM. In addition, we optimised the large-scale synthesis of deuteratedmyo-inositol, allowing for the preparation of a series of saturated and unsaturated deuterated PtdIns4Pand PtdIns5Pderivatives. Experiments in MCF7 cells demonstrated that these deuterated probes enable quantification of the corresponding endogenous phospholipids in a cellular setting. Overall, these deuterated probes will be powerful tools to help improve our understanding of the role played by PtdInsPnin physiology and disease.

Myo-Inositol 1,2,3-trisphosphate [Ins(1,2,3)P3], a component in mammalian cells, possesses the correct chemical properties of an intracellular iron transit ligand. Here we have examined the conformation of the Ins(1,2,3)P3-Fe3+ complex. The synthesis and antioxidant properties of 4,6-carbonate-myo-inositol 1,2,3,5-tetrakisphosphate [4,6-carbonate Ins(1,2,3,5)P4], which is locked in the unstable penta-axial chair conformation and 1,2,3-trisphosphoglycerol, a flexible acyclic analogue of Ins(1,2,3)P3, are reported. 4,6-Carbonate Ins(1,2,3,5)P4 caused complete inhibition of iron-catalysed hydroxyl radical (HO?) formation at 100 μM, thereby resembling Ins(1,2,3)P3 and supporting a penta-axial chair binding conformation. In contrast, 1,2,3-trisphosphoglycerol was shown to have incomplete antioxidant properties. In support of experimental observations, we have applied high-level density functional calculations to the binding of Ins(1,2,3)P3 to iron. This study provides evidence that Fe3+ binds tightly to the less stable penta-axial conformation of Ins(1,2,3)P3 using terminal and bridging phosphate oxygens, thought to also contain a tightly bound water molecule or hydroxyl ligand in the complex.

Convenient high yielding methods for the preparation of 4,6-di-O-benzyl-myo-inositol, myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate and myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoacetate, without involving chromatography are described. Myo-inositol was converted to racemic 2,4-di-O-benzoyl-myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate by successive treatment with triethyl orthoformate and benzoyl chloride. The dibenzoate obtained on benzylation with benzyl bromide and silver(I) oxide gave 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-di-O-benzyl-myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate. Deprotection of the benzoate and the orthoformate with isobutylamine and aqueous trifluoroacetic acid, respectively gave 4,6-di-O-benzyl-myo-inositol in an overall yield of 67%. Myo-inositol orthoformate and orthoacetate were prepared and isolated as their tribenzoates. The free orthoesters were regenerated by deprotection of the benzoates by aminolysis with isobutylamine.
