This compound crystallizes from a petroleum ether/ethyl acetate mixture with the chiral orthorhombic space group P2 12 12 1 with four molecules in the unit cell. The unit cell parameters are: a = 9.7945(7) £¿, b = 10.1945(7) £¿, c = 21.306(1) £¿, and V = 2127.4(2) £¿ 3. No classical hydrogen bonds were found. Bond lengths and angles of this tosylated glucofuranose derivative are typical. %K carbohydrates %K glucose %K tosylation %U http://www.mdpi.com/2073-4352/2/1/105
