✦ Synopsis
The structure of the capsular antigen from Haemophilus influenzae type c has been investigated, n.m.r. spectroscopy being the principal method used. It is concluded that the antigen is composed of repeating-units having the following structure: formula: (see text). O-Acetyl groups are present in approximately 90% of the repeating-units.

The repeating units 2-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ribitol 4'- and 1-phosphate of Haemophilus influenzae type a capsular antigen have been synthesised by condensation of an alpha-D-glucopyranosyl bromide derivative with 5-O-allyl-1,2,3-tri-O-benzyl-D-ribitol followed by selective deprotection of HO-4'
