The formation of a cyclic diacetal of methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside with a 16-membered macrocyclic loop.
The X-ray structure of a diacetal with a 16-membered macrocyclic loop, which was obtained as a product of the condensation of methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside and 1,4-bis(2-formylphenoxy)butane is presented together with polymeric compounds resulting from polycondensation; a similar polymer was formed in the reaction of methyl 2,3:4,6-di-O-salicylidene-alpha-D-mannopyranoside with 1,4-dibromobutane.
