A new neutral glycoside of myo ‐inositol was isolated from the pregnancy urine of a single donor. Its structure was investigated by 1 H‐NMR spectroscopy and mass spectroscopy. It was identified as 1‐ O ‐α‐2‐acetamido‐2‐deoxy‐D‐galactopyranosyl‐ myo ‐inositol. No such structure or sequence has previously been reported in either myo ‐inositol or glucose glycosides.
