(1R,2R,3S,6aS,7R,8R,9S,12aS)-1,2,3,7,8,9-Hexahydroxyperhydrodipyrido[1,2-a:1′,2′-d]pyrazine-6,12-dione

Abstract

The crystal structure of the title compound, C12H18N2O8, exists as O—H...O hydrogen-bonded layers of molecules running parallel to the ab plane. Each molecule is a donor and acceptor for six hydrogen bonds. The absolute stereochemistry was determined by the use of d-glucuronolactone as the starting material.
