β¦ Synopsis
In the hydrolysis of O-(2-hydroxypropyl)cellulose, residues of D-gh.ICOSe substituted with a single O-(2-hydroxypropyl) substituent at O-2 (irrespective of the pattern of additional substitution at O-3 or O-6) form 1,2-0-(1-methyl-1,2ethanediyl)-a-D-glucose acetals. Based on the characteristics of 2-0-(2-hydroxypropyl)-D-glucose and derivatives thereof in aqueous acid, these bicyclic products are shown to comprise a mixture of two furanose and two pyranose species that differ widely in relative stability, depending on the chirality of C-8 of the 1,4-dioxane ring of the compounds.
