X-ray powder diffraction data for the complexes of glucose monohydrate with sodium bromide (C6H12O6. ½NaBr·½H2O) and sodium iodide (C6H12O6·NaI·½H2O) are reported. The crystals of both complexes are trigonal with space group P31 (No. 144). The complex with sodium bromide has a = 16.4338 (6), c = 17.623 (1)Å, V = 4121.9 Å3, Z = 18 and Dx = 1.745 cm−3. The sodium iodide complex has a = 16.5249(6), c = 17.882(1) Å, V = 4228.8 Å3, Z = 18 and Dx = 1.867 g cm−3. The Smith-Snyder FN values for these data are F30 = 59.4(0.0097,52) for the sodium bromide complex and F30 = 82.7(0.0098,37) for the sodium iodide complex.
