Abstract: | A series of new synthetic tetrabenzyl N-glucosidic, N-mannosidic and N-galactosidic isomers were investigated by fast atom bombardment (FAB)/mass-analysed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectrometry. The M + H]+ ions were obtained with high abundance in the FAB spectra when using 3-nitrobenzyl alcohol as the matrix. The FAB/MIKE spectra provide characteristic daughter ions fragmented from selected molecular parent ions, allowing these isomers to be differentiated. In addition, an interesting rearrangement was found from the MIKE spectra, indicating that the benzyl (Bzl) group on the sugar ring is rearranged on to the N atom of the base (R) group to form R + Bzl + H]+ and R+ 2Bzl]+ ions. |
