Single crystals of ..cap alpha..-Methyl-D-glucopyranoside x irradiated at 77 K contain five free radical species observed by ESR and ENDOR spectroscopy. Four of these have been assigned molecular loci: a primary alkoxy radical at O/sub 6/, a secondary alkoxy radical at O/sub 2/, a deprotonated hydroxyalkyl radical at C/sub 6/, and a radical due to hydrogen abstraction at C/sub 5/. Structural considerations and mechanisms of formation are discussed.
