Abstract
A relaxation of previous recommendations on the numbering of the atoms of myo‐inositol is suggested: substituents need not necessarily be numbered so that the smallest possible locant is used. This allows an alternative designation to be used, when authors wish, to bring out structural relationships.Keywords
