✦ Synopsis
The crystal structure of 5,6,7‐trimethyl‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydropterine‐dihydrochloride‐monohydrate
The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined by X‐ray analysis (direct methods) and refined with 947 structure amplitudes to R = 0.026. The crystal system is orthorhombic, space group Pna2~1~, with unit cell dimensions a = 14.081, b = 14.623, c = 6.773 Å. The molecule is protonated at the N(1)‐ and N(5)‐position. The tetrahydropyrazine ring exists in a conformation in which C(6) deviates markedly from the mean plane of the other five atoms. The CH~3~‐groups at N(5) and C(6) possess a trans configuration with a pseudoaxial and an axial conformation respectively. The CH~3~‐groups at C(6) and C(7) in return possess the cis configuration, whereby the CH~3~‐group at C(7) occupies an equatorial conformation.

## Abstract Starting with 5‐formyl‐6,7‐dimethyl‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydropterine (II), a new synthesis of 5,6,7‐trimethyl‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydropterine (III) is described. Thereby the chemical behaviour of the 5‐formyl group in II is investigated, in order to enable the unequivocal differentiation between for
