The anydropolyhydric alcohols 1, 4-anhydroerythritol and 1, 4-anhydrothreitol were synthesized from the corresponding tetratols via acid-catalyzed dehydration, under vacuum, using H+ ion exchange resin. Comparison of temperature-dependent 13C NMR chemical shifts in aqueous and nonaqueous solvents demonstrated a significant molecular association interaction between 1, 4-anhydroerythritol and water. The chemical shifts of C ...
