Yb6(BDC)7(OH)4(H2O)4 contains both bridging hydroxyls and metal-coordinated waters, possessing Br?nsted and Lewis acid sites. The material crystallises from water at 200 °C. Using the solid as a heterogenous catalyst, glucose is converted into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, via fructose, with a total selectivity of ~70percent after 24 hours at 140 °C in water alone: the material is recyclable with no loss of crystallinity.

The synthesis of some glycosylamines (1-amino-1-deoxy-D-glucose, 1-amino-1-deoxy- D-galactose and 1-amino-1-deoxylactose) was carried out by treatment of the corresponding reducing sugars with ammonium hydrogencarbonate in concentrated ammonia. The reaction mixture was first analyzed by capillary electrophoresis with indirect absorbance detection and high performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection. Beside glycosylcarbamate, a known reaction by-product, fructose and lactulose were detected during the synthesis of 1-amino-1-deoxyglucose and 1-amino-1-deoxylactose, respectively. Quantification of glycosylamines was carried out by micellar electrokinetic chromatography with UV detection of their 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) derivatives; lactulosylamine was thus detected in the synthesis mixture of 1-amino-1-deoxylactose. The Fmoc-glycosylamines were easily purified from the other components of the crude synthesis mixtures.

Pyranose oxidases are known to oxidise D-glucose, D-xylose and L- sorbose to keto-aldoses, biochemically interesting compounds that may also be used for synthetic purposes in a variety of reactions. In this study pyranose oxidase from the basidiomycete Peniophora gigantea was investigated, and it was found that this enzyme is able to oxidise a broad variety of substrates very effectively. In analogy to its natural mode of action, most substrates are oxidised regioselectively in position 2. Certain compounds, however, are converted into 3-keto derivatives, and the enzyme even exhibits transfer potential, that is, disscharides are formed from β-glycosides of higher alcohols. Substrates that may be oxidised at C-2 in yields between 40-98% are D-allose, D-galactose, 6-deoxy-D-glucose, D-gentiobiose, α-D-glucopyranosyl fluoride and the very interesting 3-deoxy-D-glucose. 1,5-Anhydro-D-glucitol (1-deoxy-D-glucose) is very effectively oxidised in position 2 in 98% yield and additionally gives a product of dioxidation at C-2 and C-3 upon prolonged reaction time Selective oxidation at C-3 was found for 2-deoxy-D-glucose in very good yields and for methyl β-D-gluco- and methyl β-galactopyranoside in lower yields. All oxidation products were unequivocally characterised by NMR spectroscopy and/or chemical derivatisation. In addition, the kinetic data of the enzymatic reactions were determined for all substrates. On the basis of these data and the structural characteristics of the substrates, a model for the minimal structural requirements of the enzyme-substrate interaction is suggested. The enzyme presumably uses two different binding modes for the regioselective C-2 and the C-3 oxidations, which are described.
