EXAMPLE 1
Reaction formula: ##STR4## .alpha.-Trinositol (1D-myo-inositol 1,2,6-trisphosphate sodium salt, 10 g, 18.87 mmol) was dissolved in water (50 ml) and added in one lot to a solution of sodium periodate (4.04 g, 18.87 mmol) and periodic acid (4.3 g, 18.87 mmol) in water (50 ml). Polarimetry indicated complete reaction within 3 hours, but the solution was usually left overnight. If desirable, this solution can be kept refrigerated for at least a week without noticeable deterioration. A closed vessel should be avoided as in a few cases gas was slowly formed.
The oxidation product is a mixture of hemialdals characterized by .sup.1 H-NMR signals in the region of 5.3-3.2 ppm. To a part of this solution was added ammonia (10 equiv) and sodium borohydride (10 equiv). If the amine was sparingly soluble in the reaction mixture a cosolvent such as ethanol or 1,2-dimethoxyethane was added. The reaction between hemialdals and 3-(dimethylamino)-propylamine was complete within 5 min (polarimetry). The borohydride was added 10 min after the addition of ammonia. The solution was set aside for 1 day.
The solvent was removed by evaporation. Non-volatile hydrophobic amines were removed by partitioning the residue between water and dichloromethane. Removal of solvents gave a residue that was dissolved in a small amount of water and precipitated from a large volume of acetone. The precipitation was repeated once to give a product essentially free of iodide. The precipitate was then dissolved in water and acidified with either acetic acid or an acidic ion exchange resin. Repeated co-evaporation with methanol removed boric acid. Finally, the product was dissolved in water and precipitated from ethanol. Further purification by ion-exchange chromatography gave 1,5-dideoxy-1,5-imino-D-arabinitol 2,3,4-trisphosphate that was characterized as a sodium salt, yield 95%: [.alpha.].sub.D.sup.21 -4.1.degree.

Mice were injected with carrageenan solution into the lower surface of both hind-paws (0.75 mg per paw, in 0.05 ml); an increase in paw weight indicates inflammation (edema). 3.5 hours later, the animals were sacrificed by a blow to the cervical vertebrae and the hind-paws sectioned and weighted.
10 mice were studied per group. The test was performed blind.
