The standardized numbering for atoms in the various inositol isomers has changed significantly since the 1950s. Only literature subsequent to 1988 adopts the modern convention, which is based on phosphorylation patterns in biological systems. In particular, the #1 atom is typically bound with a phosphoester in the hydrated sodium receptor.
