Abstract
Rates of isomerization, epimerization, and degradation reactions were measured for cellobiose (7), cellobiulose (8), and 4-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-D-mannose (9) at 0.001 M in 1 M NaOH under N2 in the dark at 22 °C. Reaction system resolution was by column chromatography on anion resins in the borate form. Assay for D-glucose (1), D-fructose (2), D-mannose (3), and 7,8, and 9 was by continuous automated colorimetry of column effluent with orcinol–sulfuric acid as reagent. Reaction rate constants (h−1) found: k78 0.078, k79 0.0005, k7,10 0.002, k87 0.022, k89 0.003 k81 0.065, k8,12 0.023, k97 0.002, k98 0.013, k9,11 0.006 where 10,11, and 12 are other products than 1,2,3,7,8, and 9. Details for preparation of 8 and 9 are given.Keywords
