Studies of model compounds for the analysis of ester-containing polysaccharides by the reductive-cleavage method
摘要:
The four O-propionyl regioisomers of methyl tri-O-methyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside and the 2- and 3-O-propionyl regioisomers of methyl tri-O-methyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside were subjected to reductive cleavage in the presence of Et3SiH and Me3SiOSO2CF3, BF3.Et2O, or Me3SiOSO2Me-BF3.Et2O. The O-propionyl group was stable when either Me3SiOSO2CF3 or BF3.Et2O Was the catalyst, but was slowly reduced to the (1-propyl) ether when Me3SiOSO2Me-BF3.Et2O was the catalyst. Reductive cleavages catalyzed by Me3SiOSO2CF3 were complete in 6 h, those catalyzed by BF3.Et2O required at least 24 h, and those catalyzed by Me3SiOSO2Me-BF3.Et2O required 30 min or less. In the alpha-series, the rate of reductive cleavage decreased in the order 6-O-propionyl > 4-O-propionyl > 3-O-propionyl much greater than 2-O-propionyl. The reductive cleavage of beta-anomers was faster than that of the corresponding alpha-anomers. This effect was particularly striking for the alpha and beta-anomers of the 2-O-propionyl regioisomer, as would be expected on the basis of a participation reaction.

GC-FID and GC-MS analyses of methyl derivatives, MALD-TOF-MS measurements and NMR spectra were used to confirm the structural characteristics of the isomers. The (1)H and (13)CNMR signals of each isomer saccharide were assigned using COSY, E-HSQC, HSQC-TOCSY, HMBC and H2BC techniques. These kestose isomers were identified as α-D-fructofuranosyl-(2- > 2)-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 < ->2)-β-D-fructofuranoside
Chemical structures are reported for six antifungal lanostane-type triterpene-oligoglycosides from the Okinawan sea cucumber Stichopus chloronotus (BRANDT). The compounds are : stichlorosides A1 (9), B1 (15), C1 (20) [having stichlorogenol (3) as the aglycone] and A2 (10), B2 (16), C 2 (21) [dehydrostichlorogenol (4) as the aglycone].

Klebsiella K4 contains the tetrasaccharide repeating-sequence leads to 3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1 leads to 2)-alpha-D-Glcp A-(1 leads to 3)-alpha-D-Manp-(1 leads to 3)-beta-D-Glcp-(1 leads to. P.m.r.spectroscopy and the measurement of optical rotation were used to establish the anomeric linkages in the polysaccharide and in the oligosaccharides derived by partial hydrolysis. The repeating unit also contains one 0-acetyl
