Abstract:
The 2-propynyl group in the title compound, C(17)H(22)O(10), adopts an exoanomeric conformation, with the acetylenic group gauche with respect to position C1. Comparison of (13)C NMR chemical shifts from solution and the solid state suggest that the acetylenic group also adopts a conformation anti to C1 in solution. The pyranose ring adopts a (4)C(1) conformation. Of the three secondary O-acetyl groups, that on position O4, flanked by two equatorial groups, adopts a syn conformation, in agreement with recent generalizations [González-Outeiriño, Nasser & Anderson (2005). J. Org. Chem. 70, 2486-2493]. The acetyl group on position O3 adopts a gauche conformation, also in agreement with the recent generalizations, but that on position O2 adopts a syn conformation, not in agreement with the recent generalizations.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Acid Halides, Esters, and Acid Anhydrides
The IUPAC and common names of acid halides are derived from the corresponding carboxylic acids, by changing “ic acid” to “yl halide.” For example, as shown below, the IUPAC name ethanoyl chloride is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetyl chloride, is obtained from acetic acid.
