Abstract

The crystal of 1,2,3-Tri-O-acetyl-4,6-di-O-benzylidene-β-d- glucopyranose (I) was studied by X-ray diffraction. (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2 1 with cell parameters of a = 5.691(3) Å, b = 7.770(2) Å, c = 22.503(7) Å, b = 93.58(5)°, V = 993.1(7) Å3 and Z = 2. The molecular structure of (I) consists of a 4,6-O-benzylidene-glucopyranose moiety which has the 4-OH and 6-OH groups of the glucopyranose protected by glycosidic bonding to a benzylic carbon, forming a benzyl acetal. The other OH groups of the glucopyranose ring are also protected with three acetate groups. In the crystal structure adjacent molecules are linked by C-H•••O hydrogen bonds.
