Complete analyses of the proton and carbon chemical-shift assignments of D-mannurono-gamma-lactone (1) have been achieved by 1D and 2D NMR spectral measurements. At equilibrium, the anomeric alpha and beta forms were present in the ratio of 34:66 in D20 and 72:28 in Me2SO-d6. The solution data indicated that the dienvelope conformation 2E:E4 to be the favored conformation of 1 in solution. The crystal structure of 1 was determined, and it showed that the crystalline form is the beta anomer, a bicyclic structure, consisting of fused five-membered furanose and lactone rings, in agreement with an earlier deduction from chemical evidence. In contrast to the solution conformation, the furanose ring adopts a twist conformation lying between the 1/2T and 1E conformations with phase angle (P) and pseudorotation amplitude of -44.23 degrees and 37.9 degrees, respectively, whereas the lactone ring adopts an envelope E5 conformation slightly distorted towards 6T5 with a phase angle (P) of -22.3 degrees and a pseudorotation amplitude of 18.4 degrees. The molecules are linked in the crystal through a hydrogen-bonding network that involves all hydroxyl groups as well as the ring oxygen atoms.
