Myo-inositol, the most prominent naturally occurring form of inositols, is a carbocyclic polyol that plays an important role as the structural basis for a number of secondary messengers in eukaryotic cells. It is generated in vivo from the aldol cyclization of glucose-6-phosphate to myo-inositol-1-phosphate

- A step in a synthesis of PGE1 (prostanglandin E1, alprostadil) is reaction of a trisubstituted cyclohexene with bromine to form a bromolactone. Alprostadil is used as temporary therapy for infants born with congenital heart defects that restrict pulmonary blood flow.

J. Corey (Harvard University) describes it this way. “The first general synthetic route to all the known prostaglandins was developed by way of bicycloheptene intermediates. The design was guided by the requirements that the route be versatile enough to allow the synthesis of many analogs and also allow early resolution. This synthesis has been used on a large scale and in laboratories throughout the world; it has been applied to the production of countless prostaglandin analogs. Note: The wavy lines in compound C indicate that the stereochemistry of -Cl and -CN groups was not determined. Q. You have not studied the Baeyer-Villiger reaction (D to E).
