Isolation and Characterization of New Tetrasaccharides from Cottonseed

Abstract

Two kinds of new tetrasaccharide were isolated from cottonseed and their structures were established as 1^F -β-D-fructofuranosylraffinose; O-α-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→6)-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2) [O-β-D-fructofuranosyl-(2→1)]-β-D-fructofuranoside and 4^G-α-D-galactopyranosylraffinose; O-α-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→6) [O-α-D-galactopyranosyl] (1→4)]-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-fructofuranoside, respectively.
