• Description: 1,2,3,4-Tetra-O-acetyl-D-glucuronide methyl ester is a lactone that can be used as a precursor for the synthesis of various types of compounds. The chemical structure was determined by high-resolution x-ray diffraction to be a planar molecule with two conformations: one where the four acetyl groups are on different sides and another where they are all on the same side. The latter conformation is more stable due to the dihedral angle between the hydroxyl group and carbonyl group. This compound is an intermediate in synthesizing 2-(4'-hydroxybenzoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-.beta.-D glucopyranoside methyl ester by reacting with 3-(3'-azido)benzaldehyde. The single crystal x-ray diffraction study revealed that this compound has a conformation
