Preparation, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and high-resolution NMR spectroscopic analyses of N-[(1,4-anhydro-5-deoxy-2,3-O-isopropylidene-D,L-ribitol)-5-yl]trimethylammonium iodide.

Abstract The synthesis and isolation of 1,4-anhydro-5-deoxy-5-iodo-2,3- O -isopropylidene- d , l -ribitol and N -[(1,4-anhydro-5-deoxy-2,3- O -isopropylidene- d , l -ribitol)-5-yl]trimethylammonium iodide are described. The products were examined by 1 H, 13 C NMR spectroscopy, and N -[(1,4-anhydro-5-deoxy-2,3- O -isopropylidene- d , l -ribitol)-5-yl]trimethylammonium iodide was additionally analyzed by X-ray crystallography.
