1-(Methyl-α-D-glucopyranosid-6-yl)-3-vinylimidazolium iodide dimethylformamide monosolvate

Abstract

The title solvated molecular salt, [MeGluVIm]I (MeGluVIm = 1-(methyl-α-D-glucopyranosid-6-yl)-3-vinylimidazolium), or C12H19N2O5 +·I−·C3H7NO, was synthesized from methyl-α-D-6-iodoglucopyranoside and vinylimidazole in DMF. It crystallizes through precipitation from ethyl acetate solution directly after the reaction procedure. The crystal structure consists of an iodide anion and a [MeGluVIm] cation. Furthermore, the crystal structure contains one molecule of DMF, which accepts two O—H...H hydrogen bonds from the OH groups of the glucopyranoside.
