Crystal structure of sodium isosaccharate, NaC6H11O6·H2O Original Research Article

Sodium isosaccharate, NaC6H11O6·H2O (Na-ISA), has been synthesized, and its crystal structure solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Na-ISA crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21 (#4) with cell parameters a=9.2267(11) Å, b=5.0765(6) Å, c=9.7435(11) Å, β=103.304(2)°, V=444.13(9) Å3, Z=2. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares on F2 yielding final R-values (all data) R1=0.0361 and Rw2=0.0935.
