Inositol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.18) from Bacillus subtilis is shown to have a nonpolar cavity adjacent to the active site, allowing racemic protected inositol derivatives such as 4-O-benzyl-myo-inositol to be recognized with very high apparent stereoselectivity.
An effective strategy for the synthesis of 6-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-chiro- and -D-myo-inositol 1-phosphate related to putative insulin mimetics

Two glycosylinositol phosphates related to putative insulin mimetics, 6-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-chiro-inositol 1-phosphate (1) and 6-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-myo-inositol 1-phosphate (2), have been synthesized from selectively protected and enantiomerically pure D-chiro- and myo-inositol derivatives. The D-chiro-inositol unit was prepared in a multigram scale from D-glucose using the Ferrier's carbocyclization route, and it was transformed into the corresponding myo epimer by an oxidation-reduction sequence. The trichloroacetimidate method was applied efficiently for the key glycosylation of the inositol derivatives.
Mikrobial Oxidation in Synthesis: Preparation of (+)- and (-)-Pinitol from Benzene

Microbial oxidation with Pseudomonas putida of benzene affords cis-1,2-dihydroxycyclohexa-3,5-diene (2) which may be converted in five steps and 49percent overall yield to (+/-)-pinitol.Resolution of an intermediate alcohol (6) with menthoxyacetyl chloride provides optically pure materials which may be independently transformed to (+)- or (-)-pinitol.Demethylation conditions for pinitol together with further reactions of (2) and related compounds were investigated.
