      No, there isn't. I believe there's a plug-in for such stuff directly in AI, but otherwise you would need to export a PDF, SVG, PNG or whatever from PPT. If you do this a lot, you may consider switching to Mathematica or LaTex and use their math layout tools which can actually produce proper AI data and files.
