A cavity closed on one side is evident in the solid‐state structure of α‐cycloaltrin (see picture on the right). This novel non‐glucose cyclooligosaccharide is constructed of alternating 1 C 4 and 4 C 1 chair conformations of the altropyranoid rings. In aqueous solution an equilibrium between the 1 C 4 and 0 S 2 (skew) forms is established. α‐Cycloaltrin is prepared from α‐Cyclodextrin in a straightforward four‐step protocol in which the 2,3‐anhydro‐α‐cyclomannin is the key intermediate.
