چکیده
The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(6)H(12)O(6), [systematic name: (2R,3S,4R,5R,6R)-6-(hydroxy-meth-yl)oxane-2,3,4,5-tetrol] adopts a (4)C(1) chair conformation with the anomeric hydroxyl group in the equatorial position. All hydroxyl groups act as donors and acceptors in hydrogen bonding and the mol-ecule is involved in ten inter-molecular O-H⋯O inter-actions [O⋯O = 2.672 (5)-2.776 (4) Å] with eight neighbouring mol-ecules. Two independent O-H⋯O-H⋯ helices extending along the z axis are found in this structure.

Fluorosugars: synthesis of the 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,3,4-trifluoro hexose analogues of D-glucose and D-altrose and assessment of their erythrocyte transmembrane transport.
The 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,3,4-trifluoro hexose analogues of d-glucose and d-altrose were prepared and characterised and these novel sugar analogues were explored by 2D-(19)F-EXSY NMR for their potential to cross erythrocyte (red blood cell) membranes, by comparison with the well known capacity of erythrocytes to transport d-glucose.
متن کامل6-Deoxyhexoses from l-Rhamnose in the Search for Inducers of the Rhamnose Operon: Synergy of Chemistry and Biotechnology.
In the search for alternative non-metabolizable inducers in the l-rhamnose promoter system, the synthesis of fifteen 6-deoxyhexoses from l-rhamnose demonstrates the value of synergy between biotechnology and chemistry. The readily available 2,3-acetonide of rhamnonolactone allows inversion of configuration at C4 and/or C5 of rhamnose to give 6-deoxy-d-allose, 6-deoxy-d-gulose and 6-deoxy-l-talo...
متن کاملChemical Constituents from the Stem Barks of Plumeria rubra L.
Background and objectives: Plumeria rubra L. (Apocynaceae) is a deciduous shrub or small tree cultivated in subtropical and tropical countries. Its bark is prescribed to treat amoebic dysentery, dropsy, jaundice, scabies, gonorrhea, venereal affections and wounds. In the present research, we aimed to isolate and identify the chemical constituents of the bark of ...
متن کاملEnzymic synthesis of a diamino sugar nucleotide by extracts of type XIV Diplococcus pneumoniae.
We previously reported that incubation of the appropriat’e sugar nucleotides with extracts obtained from Type XIV Diplococcus pneumoniae resulted in the formabion of glycolipids and serologically active polysaccharides (1, 2). During the course of these studies, we observed the formation of an unusual sugar nucleotide when the extracts were incubated with UDP-N-acetylglucosamine. As shown below...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of Helicobacter pylori Pseudaminic Acid Biosynthesis N-Acetyltransferase PseH: Implications for Substrate Specificity and Catalysis
Helicobacter pylori infection is the common cause of gastroduodenal diseases linked to a higher risk of the development of gastric cancer. Persistent infection requires functional flagella that are heavily glycosylated with 5,7-diacetamido-3,5,7,9-tetradeoxy-L-glycero-L-manno-nonulosonic acid (pseudaminic acid). Pseudaminic acid biosynthesis protein H (PseH) catalyzes the third step in its bios...
