ResumoThe tube of Alvinella pompejana contains in its carbohydrates fraction, 3 methylated monosaccharides: 2‐mono‐ O ‐methyl‐L‐fucose. 3‐mono‐ O ‐methyl‐L‐fucose and 2,4‐di‐ O ‐methyl‐L‐fucose. The present work appears to be the first report of the occurrence of 2‐mono‐ O ‐methyl‐L‐fucose and 3‐mono O ‐methyl‐L‐fucose in the animal kingdom. Moreover, it is the first time that 2,4‐di O ‐methyl‐L‐fucose is found in nature.
