Abstract
Per-O-methylated pentopyranoses and hexopyranoses were converted to th eir glycosyl chlorides and coupled with cesium salt of a fluorescent c hiral derivatization reagent, thyl-2-beta-naphthyl-1,3-benzodioxole-4- carboxylic acid [(+)-MNB carboxylic acid], to afford their 1-O-(s)-MNB carboxylates. The D,L enantiomers were separated by normal-phase HPLC and determined at. the picomolar level, and this methodology could be extended to the highly sensitive simultaneous determination of per-O- methylated monosaccharides.
