Monoesterification of di-O-isopropylidene and di-O-cyclohexylidene chiro-inositols.
Monoesterification of D- or L-chiro-inositols protected as diacetals proceeds in excellent selectivity and yields. The metal-catalyzed, one-step reaction proceeds at room temperature under an air atmosphere and has been developed using a range of examples.
