Identification of the characteristic, anomeric bands in the infrared spectrum of lyxose in aqueous solution.
Time-dependent, Fourier-transform infrared spectra of solutions of lyxose in H2O and D2O were measured, in order to identify the vibrational bands characteristic of each anomer. The anomeric C-H stretching and deformation bands, and also the anomeric C-O stretching bands, were identified.
