2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-β-d-galactopyranosyl-d-glucose dihydrate

Abstract

In the title compound, C14H25NO11·2H2O, the primary hydroxyl group connected to the anomeric C atom of the N-acetyl-β-d-glucopyranose residue exhibits positional disorder, with occupancy factors for the α and β anomers of 0.77 and 0.23, respectively. The two torsion angles (Φ and Ψ) and the bridge angle (τ) that describe conformation of the glycosidic linkage between the galactopyranose and glucopyranose rings are Φ = −81.6 (3)°, Ψ = 118.1 (2)° and τ = 115.2 (2)°. Two water molecules stabilize the molecular packing by forming hydrogen bonds with the saccharide residues.
