Organometallic supramolecular chemistry with monosaccharides: triethylammonium mu-chloro-bis[chloro(eta5-cyclopentadienyl)-(methyl 4,6-o-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosidato-1kappaO2,1:2kappaO3) zirconate].

The reaction of [CpZrCl3(thf)2] with methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranoside (beta-MeBGH2, 1) in the presence of Et3N results in the formation of the zirconate complex [Et3NH] [(CpZrCl)2(mu-Cl) (mu-(beta-MeBG)]2] (2). X-ray structure analyses were performed from the ligand precursor beta-MeBGH2 1 as well as from 2. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic chiral space group P2(1). The molecules show a flat arrangement including the benzylidene protecting group, and are packed in columns. The columns are held together in pairs by the formation of hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy functions in positions 2 and 3. Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1). The beta-MeBG ligands are chelating the Zr atoms through the oxygen atoms in positions 2 and 3 of the glucopyranosidato ligand revealing a 1-zircona-2,5-dioxolane moiety each; the oxygen atom in position 3 is linked to both of the Zr atoms. Additionally one chloro ligand is bridging the two Zr centers. Two terminally bound chloro ligands stick out from the two Zr atoms into a chiral U-shaped cavity constructed by the two beta-MeBG ligands. The cavity incorporates the tertiary ammonium cation [Et3NH]+ which is bound to one of the terminal chloro ligands through a hydrogen bond. The inclusion of the [Et3NH]+ cation in the U-shaped cavity, even in solution, is demonstrated by NMR spectroscopic data.

Effect of stereochemistry on the electrospray ionization tandem mass spectra of transition metal chloride complexes of monosaccharides.

The effect of stereochemistry on the complexation of aldohexoses (glucose, mannose, galactose, allose and talose) and ketohexoses (fructose, tagitose and sorbose) with transition metal chlorides (CoCl(2), NiCl(2), MnCl(2) and ZnCl(2)) has been investigated by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. Electrospray ionization of methanolic solutions of hexoses containing metal chlorides gave abundant ions corresponding to [M + MetCl](+) and [2M + MetCl](+) which on collision-induced dissociation gave characteristic fragment ions. The fragmentation pathways have been confirmed by examining methyl glucoside and several isotopically labeled glucoses. Eliminations of H(2)O and HCl, C-C cleavages and elimination of metalhydroxychloride are the competing fragmentation pathways observed. All these pathways seem to be influenced by the stereochemistry of the molecule. The fragmentation of the dimeric complexes, [2M + MetCl](+), is also controlled by the stereochemistry of the molecule. The abundance of the product ions corresponding to elimination of HCl is found to increase with increasing number of axial hydroxyl groups in aldohexoses. [2M + MetCl](+) dissociates by elimination of HCl followed by C(2)H(4)O(2) in aldohexose complexes and by elimination of HCl followed by C(3)H(6)O(3) in ketohexose complexes.

Monosaccharides as internal probes for the determination of the absolute configuration of 2-butanol.

D-Glucose, D-mannose and L-rhamnose were reacted with a racemic mixture of 2-butanol, and the resulting alpha-glycosides were analyzed by 1H NMR with COSY and NOESY experiments. Conformational analysis of alpha-glycosidic bonds performed with molecular modeling and appropriate heteronuclear long-range coupling measurements and combined with analysis of dipolar couplings observed in NOESY spectra allowed the assignment of absolute configuration in the aglycones of elucidated alpha-glycosides.

Both glucose-type monosaccharides and one of their metabolites are required for activation of yeast plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells were grown on D-glucose, D-galactose, D-fructose, D-mannose, maltose, trehalose and ethanol. All these substrates were separately added to cells thus grown and the onset and rate of acidification mediated by the plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase were determined. Irrespective of the growth substrate, the best triggers of acidification in both species were fructose, mannose and glucose (with average rates of 5.2, 5.0 and 4.8 nmol H+ per min per mg dry weight, respectively, for S. cerevisiae, and 4.5, 6.8 and 5.8 for S. pombe). These were followed in S. cerevisiae by galactose in Gal-, Man- and Tre-grown cells (about 0.40 nmol H+) and by maltose in Mal- and Tre-grown cells (about 0.15 nmol H+). Trehalose elicited some response in only ethanol-grown cells while ethanol itself was completely ineffective in activating the H(+)-ATPase. In S. pombe, however, maltose caused an acidification rate of 3.6 nmol H+ per min per mg dry wt., followed by EtOH (().38), Gal (0.13) and Tre (0.05). 6-Deoxy-D-glucose and 2-deoxy-D-glucose, not metabolized or improperly metabolized analogues of glucose, had no effect whatsoever. It appears that the sensor triggering the ATPase-activating pathway is a complex responding both to a glucose-type sugar (Glc, Man, Fru) and possibly identical with one of the glucose carriers, and to one of its metabolites, most probably fructose-6-phosphate.

Proton resonance assignments in oligosaccharides containing multiple monosaccharide residues of the same type.

A technique is described for assisting the resonance assignment process in oligosaccharide proton NMR spectra, where multiple residues of the same type generate extreme resonance overlap in the spectrum. The approach involves the modification of a conventional HOHAHA experiment with constant-time acquisition in t1, which effectively proton decouples the C-1 protons of residues whose resonances overlap, thus affording a significant increase in effective resolution in that dimension. For a sufficiently long spin-lock time, complete one-dimensional subspectra are obtained essentially free of cross talk from adjacent resonances. Further simplification of the assignment process is illustrated by incorporation of the constant-time modification into a three-dimensional HOHAHA-HOHAHA experiment.
