Lysodektose--a new trisaccharide from Micrococcus lysodeikticus which is transformed into an aminoxyl free radical with the loss of an electron.
A new trisaccharide 6-0-(2-deoxy-2-(N-methyl)-hydroxylamino-beta-D- glucopyranosyl)-alpha,alpha-trehalose named lysodektose has been isolated from Micrococcus lysodeikticus. In oxygenated solutions or in the presence of K3 Fe (CN)6 lysodektose is transformed into a long lived free radical. Spin trapping data are presented and functions are suggested for the substance.
