Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) Applications in Organic and Bioorganic Materials

Abstract

The radiolysis mechanism of oligosaccharides has been extensively studied during the last years with the Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) technique [1–4]. We report here experiments carried out using the spin trapping method [5,6] on c-D-glucopyranose, β-D-glucopyranose, 1-O-CH3-α-D-glucopyranose, sucrose and oligosaccharides Gn (defined as O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1->4)n-1-α-D-glucopyranose) with n-2 to n-7, and several 13C labeled derivatives of these compounds. The gamma induced radicals S are converted into long-lived nitroxide spin adducts in the liquid phase (water-ethanol [2:1]) by reaction with 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane (MNP or tBu-N-O):
