Computational methods frequently predict long bonds in radical cations of vicinal diols , like sugars [1,2] . Although s emi-
empirical methods offer lengths for such bonds that are likely to be exaggerated [1], the more advanced DFT methods can
give better results . In this work we have performed DFT computations with large basis sets to calculate the length of the
C4-C5 bond in radical cations of acetalized monosaccharides. The results correlate well with o ur previous studies
regarding the positi on of the long bond. The lengths of these bonds are slightly shorter when compared with the values
given by semi -empirical methods, like RM1 and PM7 [1].

This work wa s partially supported by the Romanian National Au thority for Scientific Research (CNCS -UEFISCDI)
through projects PN -II-PCCA -2011 -142 and POSCCE 1854 -(48749) -2015 -677.
