Structure and conformation of tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal dimer in solid state and in solution
Abstract
X-Ray crystallography and 1H NMR spectroscopy indicate that the conformations of both rings A and B and the relative orientation of the rings in the C-linked disaccharide 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-C-(4,6-di-O-acetyl-2,3-dideoxy-α-D-erythro-hex-2-enopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranose in solution are virtually identical to the crystalline structure.
