1D-1-O-tert-Butyldiphenylsilyl-2,3,6-O-tris(methoxymethylene)-myo-inositol 4,5-bis(dibenzylphosphate)

R. J. Anderson and G. J. Gainsford

Abstract: The title compound [systematic name: tetrabenzyl (1R,2R,3S,4R,5R,6S)-4-(tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)-3,5,6-tris(methoxymethoxy)cyclohexane-1,2-diyl bisphosphate], C₅₆H₆₈O₁₅P₂Si, was isolated as an intermediate in the preparation of a phosphatidylinositol phosphate for biological studies. In the crystal, the molecules are connected via one methylene C-H and two weak phenyl-ether C-HO interactions. One benzyloxy group is disordered over two overlapping positions with an occupancy ratio of 0.649 (7):0.351 (7).
