Inositol Phosphates and Derivatives: Synthesis, Biochemistry, and Therapeutic Potential

This new volume examines the synthesis, biochemistry, and pharmacological evaluation aspects of design compounds with therapeutic effects. Two overview chapters provide comprehensive background information on stereochemistry and nomenclature of inositol phosphates, basic biochemistry, synthetic challenges, and related pharmacology. Subsequent chapters describe novel methods of preparation, including the use of unusual starting materials and mediation by microorganisms, therapeutic potential and bioactivity, and structure-activity relationships.
