Transgalactosylated derivatives of cyclomalto-hexaose (alpha CD), -hep
taose (beta CD), and -octaose (gamma CD) were synthesized by cu-galact
osidase from coffee bean using melibiose as a donor and alpha CD, beta
CD or gamma CD as an acceptor. Mono- and di-O-alpha-D-galactosylated
CDs were isolated and purified by HPLC. Their structures were elucidat
ed by fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS) and C-13 NMR spe
ctroscopy. For structural determination of positional isomers of 6(1),
6(n)-di-O-alpha-D-galactosyl-CDs, digestion products with cyclodextrin
glucanotransferase were analyzed by HPLC and FABMS.
