A minor impurity was recorded by hplc during the final purification of synthetically prepared samples of the 5′‐0‐glucuronide of azidothymidine (GAZT). Following isolation of a small quantity of this impurity by hplc, elucidation of the structure was undertaken. A combination of two‐dimensional nmr methods in conjunction with infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry were utilized to unequivocally identify the impurity as the 4″,5″‐dehydro‐5′‐ O ‐glucuronide of AZT (DGAZT).
