title: Structural elucidation of aculeximycin. II. Structures of carbohydrate moieties.
abstract: Treatment of aculeximycin with 2% 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undecene-7 (DBU)-methanol yielded three products, aculexitriose, pseudoaglycones I and II. The structural elucidation of aculexitriose was carried out by spectral analyses (MS, NMR (1H-1H 2D NMR spectroscopy, nuclear Overhauser effect] and chemical degradations of aculexitriose and its derivatives. The structure of aculexitriose was established to be a branched trisaccharide, O-6-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1----2)-O-[3-amino-2,3,6-trideoxy-beta- D- arabino-hexopyranosyl-(1----3)]-6-deoxy-D-glucopyranose. On the other hand the pseudoaglycones I and II were stereoisomers with respect to a chiral center newly formed by the DBU reaction. The pseudoaglycones contain one neutral sugar and one amino sugar, which turned out to be D-mannose and L-vancosamine, respectively.
