The C-6 hydroxymethyl group of methyl D-galactopyranoside and oligosaccharides containing D-galactopyranosyl residues were found to be oxidized with oxygen by galactose oxidase to the corresponding carboxyl group via an aldehyde intermediate.
PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF β-D-FRUCTOFURANOSYL O-(α-D-GALACTOPYRANOSYL URONIC ACID)-(1->6)-O-α-D-GLUCOPYRANOSIDE AND O-(α-D-GALACTOPYRANOSYL URONIC ACID)-(1->6)-D-GLUCOSE
β-D-Fructofuranosyl O-(α-D-galactopyranosyl uronic acid)-(1->6)-O-α-D-glucopyranoside (3) was prepared by treating raffinose with D-galactose oxidase, followed by hypoiodite oxidation of the resulting aldehyde.Mild acid hydrolysis of 3 gave O-(α-D-galactopyranosyl uronic acid)-(1->6)-D-glucose.
