One-bond carbon-proton coupling constants: angular dependence in alpha-linked oligosaccharides.
An investigation is presented of the angular dependence of 1JC,H in model compounds related to alpha-linked oligosaccharides. Values calculated by FPT formulation in the semi-empirical INDO method for models of (1----1)-, (1----2)-, (1----3)-, and (1----4)-linked disaccharides were compared, and the effect of the orientation of HO-2 was elucidated. The angular dependence of 1JC,H on the glycosidic dihedral angles phi H and psi H was characterised in the form 1JC,H = A cos 2 phi + B cos phi + C sin 2 phi + D sin phi + E. The 1JC,H values, measured by DEPT methods for C-1-H-1 and C-X'-H-X' in various rigid carbohydrates, were used to adjust the calculated angular dependences and to determine solvent effects. Based on the abundance of the conformers for maltose and isomaltose, the thermodynamically averaged 1JC,H values have been calculated. The results obtained (less than 1JC-1,H-1 greater than 169.9, less than 1JC-4',H-4' greater than 147.7 Hz for methyl beta-maltoside and less than 1JC-1,H-1 greater than 169.8 Hz for methyl beta-isomaltoside) agree with the experimental values of 172.4, 147.7, and 170.3 Hz, respectively.
