Notes:
A novel carbohydrate has previously been isolated from human bile as a complex glycoside of bilirubin [1]. This compound has been tentatively identified as 3-C-hydroxymethyl-D-riburonic acid. To test this structural assignment the proposed branched-chain uronic acid was synthesized. Gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric comparison of the natural and synthetic materials indicated that the proposed structure, 3-C-hydroxymethyl-D-riburonic acid, did not apply to thc natural product.
