Abstract
The crystal structure of methyl 3,6-dideoxy-β- d-ribohexopyranoside monohydrate was determined by direct methods. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P2 1, with cell dimensions a = 9.089(1), b = 7.668(1), c = 6.956(1) A ̊ , β = 101.12° . The molecule adopts the 4 C 1 chair conformation. The same conformation was also found in both aqueous and chloroform solutions. The pyranose ring is only slightly distorted, and the consequences of this observation on antigen structure are discussed.
