✦ Synopsis
The conformation in 2H20 of 4-thio-L-lyxono-l,4-1actone (1) was studied by nuclear magnetic resonance spec~oscopy, by means of homonuclear (J]a,IH) and heteronuclear (Jl.,13c) coupling constants. The couplings were directly measured by a two-dimensional heteronucleus-coupled to~ hetero-half-filtered proton-proton correlation (HETLOC) experiment, which does not require S3C isotopic enrichment. In solution, the thiolactone ring of I adopts preferentially the E 3 conformation, and its hydroxymethyl group populates mainly the gt rotamer. The X-ray diffraction data of a single crystal of 1 indicates that also in the solid state the thiolactone ring adopts an E 3 conformation, with a puckering somewhat larger than that observed for aldono-l,4-1actones and furanose rings. The molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds, which form chains. Particularly, 0-5 is fully engaged as donor and acceptor in hydrogen bonding and the rotameric conformation of the hydroxymethyl group of 1 is f'Lxed in the tg form.
