Abstract
The structure of the O‐antigen polysaccharide from Escherichia coli strain F171 has been determined. NMR analysis of the polysaccharide showed that it was composed of pentasaccharide repeating units. The ^1^H and ^13^C signals were assigned by 2D NMR techniques which revealed severe spectral overlap for key resonances at substitution positions. The structure of the repeating unit was deduced from ^1^H,^13^C HMBC and, in particular, by ^1^H,^1^H NOESY experiments as follows:
The structure is identical with that of the O‐antigen from Escherichia coli O25 previously determined by chemical degradation methods and the strain F171 should therefore belong to this serogroup. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
