| Synonyms | Cyclohexanehexol; Hexahydroxycyclohexane; myo-inositol plant cell culture tested; myo-Inositol, FCC Grade i-Inositol, FCC Grade; meso-inositol; p-Iodo Phenol; Myo-Inositol; Inosit; Inositol NF12; ; (1R,2S,3r,4R,5S,6s)-1,2,3,4,5,6-Cyclohexanehexol; (1R,2S,3r,4R,5S,6s)-1,2,3,4,5,6-Cyclohexanhexol; (1R,2S,3r,4R,5S,6s)-Cyclohexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol; 1,2,3,4,5,6-cyclohexanehexol, (1a,2a,3a,4b,5a,6b)-; 1,2,3,4,5,6-Cyclohexanehexol, (1alpha,2alpha,3alpha,4beta,5alpha,6beta)-; 1,2,3,5/4,6-Inositol; ; INOSITAL; Inositol NF |
| Molecular Formula | C6H12O6 |
| Molecular Weight | 180.16 |
| CAS Reg;istry Number | 87-89-8: 6917-35-7 |
| Molecular Structure | |
| Product Application | It is used as a biochemical reagent and also in pharmaceuticals and organic synthesis. |
Inositol, also known as myo-inositol, is identified by CAS numbers 87-89-8 and 6917-35-7,
with a molecular formula C6H12O6 and a molar mass of 180.16 g/mol.
It typically appears as white crystals or crystalline powder, odorless and sweet, with a melting point ranging from 222 to 227°C.
In aqueous solution, it exhibits neutrality and stability to heat, air, strong acids, and bases.
While insoluble in ethanol, ether, and chloroform, its solubility in water varies with temperature.
Inositol plays crucial roles in lipid and sugar metabolism, particularly in tissues like muscle, heart, and liver.
It is utilized in pharmaceuticals as vitamins and hypolipidemic drugs, aiding in liver and tissue fat metabolism.
Oral dosages range from 0.5 to 3 grams daily.
Additionally, it serves as a feed additive, promoting growth in shrimp and salmon and preventing inositol deficiency.
Stored in sealed containers, inositol maintains its stability and efficacy, serving diverse applications in pharmaceuticals and animal nutrition.
