The chemical structure would be easier to visualize if a chair conformation were used.

Is it triphosphate or trisphosphate? The title is not consistent with the body of the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.239.144.167 (talk) 23:30, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is trisphosphate since the phosphates are not covalently bound together, but are found in different locations in the molcule. Triphosphate means that the phosphates are attached to each other in the same molecule, like ATP. Same logic applies for bisphosphate and tetrakisphosphate I believe. (See fructose 1,6-bisphosphate for another example.) Cmcnicoll (talk) 15:00, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article should be moved to inositol-trisphosphate

I suggest that the Article be moved to the Article named Inositol-trisphosphate, I don't know how to do this, though.--130.83.117.163 (talk) 13:00, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Inositol triphosphate → Inositol_trisphosphate — Because this is the chemical correct name for this molecule. —triple5
