STEREOSPECIFIC PREPARATION OF MONOGLUCOSIDES OF OPTICALY ACTIVE trans-1,2-CYCLOHEXANEDIOLS BY ENZYMIC TRANS-D-GLUCOSYLATION, AND (13)C-N.M.R. SPECTROSCOPY OF THE RESULTING MONO-D-GLUCOPYRANOSIDES

Anomeric mono-D-glucosides of optically active trans-1,2-cyclohexanediols <(1R, 2R) and (1S, 2S)> were stereoselectively prepared from the racemic mixture by means of enzymic trans-D-glucosylation using crude enzyme preparations that are commercially available or are utilized for food manufacturing.The (13)C-n.m.r. spectra of these D-glucosides were characterized, and the stereochemical influence, on the glycosylation shifts of cyclohexanol, of the vicinal hydroxyl substitution was discussed in comparison with that of vicinal alkyl substitution reported previously.
