In the title mol­ecule {systematic name: (5S)-5-[(β-d-gluco­pyranos­yloxy)meth­yl]furan-2(5H)-one}, C11H16O8, the five-membered ring is essentially planar, the maximum deviation being 0.0151 (13) Å for the O atom. The six-membered ring adopts a chair conformation with puckering parameters Q = 0.581 (2) Å, θ = 9.0 (2)° and ϕ = 39.7 (13)°, and with all of the substituents of the glucoside unit having normal equatorial orientations. The crystal structure is stabilized by extensive O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding, resulting in a three-dimensional network
