The enantiomers of permethylated monosaccharides and 1,5-anhydroaldito
ls were resolved using modified cyclomaltoheptaoses and cyclomaltoocta
oses (beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins) as chiral stationary phases in ca
pillary GLC. This method was applied to the galactan from Helix pomati
a, which contains both D- and L-galactose. The corresponding 1,5-anhyd
rogalactitols which were formed by reductive cleavage of the permethyl
ated galactan could be separated, allowing the simultaneous determinat
ion of linkage position and absolute configuration of galactose residu
es in snail galactan. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
