2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-d-xylofuranose

Abstract

The synthesis and crystallization of 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-d-xylofuranose permitted us to isolate the alpha anomer with a small contamination of the beta form (ca 10%), whose first crystallographic structure obtained in the P212121 space group was determined at 100 K up to a resolution of sin θmax/λ = 0.71 Å−1 and refined to an R1 value of 0.0171 with a Hirshfeld atom refinement (HAR) approach.
