Abstract:
The title compound, C(19)H(26)O(8)S, has been synthesized from 2,3:4,5-di-O-isopropyl-idene-β-d-fructopyran-ose. The absolute configuration of the fused ring is confirmed by anomalous dispersion effects in the diffraction measurement. The six-membered β-fructopyran-ose ring has a twist-boat conformation with the two five-membered rings trans to each other. In the crystal, inter-molecular non-classical C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network.

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.
As with other organic compounds, alcohols and phenols...
