title: 2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-galacto-pyranosyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl disulfide tetra-hydro-furan solvate.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of title compound, C(28)H(38)O(18)S(2)·C(4)H(8)O, comprises one disulfide-bridged sugar molecule and one solvent molecule. No significant differences in structural parameters are found between the present structure and the previously determined unsolvated form [Brito, López-Rodríguez, Bényei & Szilagyi (2006 ▶). Carbohydr. Res.341, 2967-2972]. The compounds are characterized by a compact structure with spatial proximity of the two pyranosyl rings. One of the carbonyl atoms is disordered over two sites [site occupancy = 0.69 (7) for major component] and the displacement parameters for the THF species are unsually large.
