Multistage Ion Mobility Spectrometry Combined with Infrared Spectroscopy for Glycan Analysis

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Priyanka Bansal

The structural complexity of glycans makes their characterization challenging, not only because of the presence of various isomeric forms of the precursor molecule but also because the fragments can themselves be isomeric. We have recently developed an IMS ...

Identification of Mobility-Resolved N-Glycan Isomers

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Priyanka Bansal, Robert Paul Pellegrinelli

Glycan analysis has evolved considerably during the last decade. The advent of high-resolution ion-mobility spectrometry has enabled the separation of isomers with only the slightest of structural differences. However, the ability to separate such species ...

A New Strategy Coupling Ion-Mobility-Selective CID and Cryogenic IR Spectroscopy to Identify Glycan Anomers

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Eduardo Carrascosa Casado, Priyanka Bansal, Robert Paul Pellegrinelli, Lei Yue

Determining the primary structure of glycans remains challenging due to their isomeric complexity. While high-resolution ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) has recently allowed distinguishing between many glycan isomers, the arrival-time distributions (ATDs) ...

Equilibrium and non-equilibrium furanose selection in the ribose isomerisation network

Paolo De Los Rios, Francesco Piazza, Daniel Maria Busiello, Shiling Liang

The exclusive presence of beta -D-ribofuranose in nucleic acids is still a conundrum in prebiotic chemistry, given that pyranose species are substantially more stable at equilibrium. However, a precise characterisation of the relative furanose/pyranose fra ...

How General Is Anomeric Retention during Collision-Induced Dissociation of Glycans?

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Eduardo Carrascosa Casado, Robert Paul Pellegrinelli, Lei Yue

: Despite the essential role that glycans play in many biological processes, their isomeric com-plexity makes their structural determination partic-ularly challenging. Tandem mass spectrometry has played a central role in glycan analysis, and recent work h ...

Cryogenic Ion Spectroscopy for Identification of Monosaccharide Anomers

Thomas Rizzo, Valeriu Scutelnic

We combine conformer-selective, cryogenic infrared spectroscopy, quantum mechanical computations, and 18O substitution at the reducing end to determine the structural preferences of protonated glucosamine in the gas phase. Cryogenic infrared-infrared (IR-I ...

Production, characterization and upgrading of biomass-derived acetal-stabilized carbohydrates

Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago

Biomass is an attractive source of renewable carbon-based fuels and chemicals. Multiple research efforts are centered around integrated biorefineries, where all fractions of biomass are converted to fuels or chemical products. These efforts are focused aro ...

Palladium-Catalyzed Vicinal Amino Alcohols Synthesis from Allyl Amines by In Situ Tether Formation and Carboetherification

Jérôme Waser, Ugo Jonathan Orcel

Vicinal amino alcohols are important structural motifs of bioactive compounds. Reported herein is an efficient method for their synthesis based on the palladium-catalyzed oxy-alkynylation, oxy-arylation, or oxy-vinylation of allylic amines. High regio- and ...

Toward Quantitative Measurements of Enzyme Kinetics by Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Sami Jannin, Aurélien Bornet, Jonas Milani

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) experiments enabled us to study the kinetics of the enzymatic phosphorylation reaction of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) by hexokinase (HK), with or without the presence of an excess of G6P, which ...

Synthesis of C-linked Disaccharides and Analogues as Biomimetics of the TF Epitope

Maria Kolympadi

Glycoproteins and glycolipids are major components of the outer surface of mammalian cells. Their carbohydrate moieties, which are directed into the outer environment, serve as ligands for receptor proteins, such as lectins, pathogen proteins and antibodie ...

C(1 -> 4)-linked disaccharides through carbonylative Stille cross-coupling

Pierre Vogel, Peter Steunenberg

A tinglucal tributyl[4,6-O-bis(t-butyl)silylidene-3-O-tris(isopropyl)silyl]tin 7 and a triflate derived from isolevoglucosenone (1R,4R,5R)-4-benzyloxy-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-en-2-yl trifluoromethanesulfonate 10 undergo the carbonylative Stille conden ...

Synthesis of C-glycosides and C-linked disaccharides through carbonylative Stille coupling reactions

Peter Steunenberg

In the first part, we described the synthesis of C-(1'→1) and C-(1'→4) disaccharide precursors, which are readily obtained via the carbonylative Stille coupling of glucal and isolevoglucosenone derivatives. Tin glycals and triflates, derived from isolevogl ...
