Abstract
The condensation products of arylamine (aniline, p-nitroaniline, p-aminoazobenzene, and sulfanilamide) with glucofuranurono-γ-lactone were prepared. It was established that the condensation product should have a structure of 1-arylamino-1-deoxyglucofuranurono-γ-lactone (II a). It was found that the opening of the lactone ring in (II a) by treatment with sodium hydroxide afforded 1-arylamino-1-deoxyglucofuranuronate, while it gave 1-arylamino-1-deoxyglucopyranuronamide with ammonia-saturated methanol.
