	abstract = {<p>The benzylidene acetals obtained by cleavage of the orthobenzoate moiety in myo-mositol 1,3,5-orthobenzoate were used to prepare mono- as well as di-deoxy inositol derivatives via their xanthates. The dideoxygenation is a result of intramolecular abstraction of the benzylidene acetal hydrogen and subsequent cleavage of the acetal ring. Such a cleavage does not take place in analogous acetals derived from other orthoesters. The 1,3-acetals derived from myoinositol 1,3,5-orthoesters were also used to prepare neo-inositol and isomeric deoxy-amino inositols, Most of the reactions in these synthetic sequences starting from myo-inositol give one product in each step. The results presented here show that myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthobenzoate offers many advantages over other orthoesters for the synthesis of cyclitol derivatives from myo-inositol.</p>},

	abstract = {A method for the preparation of benzene derivatives from myo-inositol, an abundantly available phyto chemical is described. 1,3-Bridged acetals of inososes undergo step-wise elimination leading to the formation of polyoxygenated benzene derivatives. This aromatization reaction proceeds through the intermediacy of a beta-alkoxyenone, which could be isolated. This sequence of reactions starting from myoinositol, provides a novel route for the preparation of polyoxygenated benzene derivatives including polyoxygenated biphenyl. This scheme of synthesis demonstrates the potential of myo-inositol as a sustainable non-petrochemical resource for aromatic compounds. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},
