Investigation of stretching vibrations of glycosidic linkages in disaccharides and polysaccharides with use of IR spectra deconvolution.
The results are presented for the deconvolution of IR spectra of disaccharides and polysaccharides with alpha and beta configurations of the 1 --> 4 glycosidic linkage (maltose, cellobiose, amylose, and cellulose), as well as of their corresponding monosaccharides (alpha- and beta-D-glucose) in the 1200-920 cm(-1) frequency range. It is established that a characteristic of di- and polysaccharides with 1 --> 4 glycosidic linkage is the appearance of new absorption bands in the 1175-1140 cm(-1) spectral range, as opposed to the IR spectra of monosaccharides. This can be a spectroscopic manifestation of the glycosidic linkage formation. In the 1000-970 cm(-1) frequency range, absorption bands, which are not observed in the monomer spectrum, are separated as a result of the deconvolution of the IR spectra of cellobiose and cellulose. The number of bands in this range remains unchanged for maltose and amylose, as compared to the monomer spectra. It is shown that the application of the method of deconvolution leads to a considerable enhancement in the resolution of the absorption bands in the IR spectra of mono-, di-, and polysaccharides.
