(CAS NO.: ), with other name of 3,4-Dideoxy-4-((2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethyl)amino)-2-C-(hydroxymethyl)-D-epi-inositol, could be produced through many synthetic methods.

Following is one of the synthesis routes:
Firstly, (I) could go through the process of acylation with benzyloxycarbonyl chloride (II) in the presence of NaHCO₃ in ethyl acetate to produce the corresponding N-benzyloxycarbonyl derivative (III), and the yielding compound is then react with Br₂ in water to afford cyclic carbamate (IV). Next, Elimination of bromine from (IV) with NaBH₄ in water affords the new cyclic carbamate (V), which by hydrolysis with Ba(OH)₂ in refluxing water is converted to valiolamine (VI). Finally, this compound is reductocondensed with 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (VII) and sodium cyanoborohydride in DMF 2N HCl.
