G. Toth et al., NMR studies of the conformational behaviour and tautomerism of bis- and tris-saccharidoguanidines, MAGN RES CH, 39(5), 2001, pp. 283-287
The reaction of an acetyl-protected symmetrical sugar carbodiimide with ami
nes yielded the corresponding trisubstituted guanidine derivatives 2-6 with
two or three sugar units. Their tautomerism, isomerism and conformational
behaviour were elucidated by application of one- and two-dimensional H-1 an
d C-13 NMR spectroscopy. The rate of tautomerisation was calculated from RO
ESY exchange measurements. Copyright (C) 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
