Abstract: | ![]() In the title compound, 4‐amino‐1‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐eythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐3‐vinyl‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d]pyrimidine monohydrate, C12H15N5O3·H2O, the conformation of the glycosyl bond is anti. The furanose moiety is in an S conformation with an unsymmetrical twist, and the conformation at the exocyclic C—C(OH) bond is +sc (gauche, gauche). The vinyl side chain is bent out of the heterocyclic ring plane by 147.5 (5)°. The three‐dimensional packing is stabilized by O—H·O, O—H·N and N—H·O hydrogen bonds. |
