Figure 2.
1H1-13C13 multiple-bond correlation (1H1[13C13]HMBC)
spectrum of the capsular polysaccharide.
The two delays were \bigtriangleup1 = 3.3 ms and
\bigtriangleup2 = 45.0 ms.
For simplicity we have avoided using lower case bold-face
letter notation twice to indicate residues in a given cross peak
as used in the text, except for inter-residue correlation peaks.
Thus, H1/a5 indicates a H1/a C5 and aH1/b3
indicates a H1/b C3, etc.
Weak cross peaks (a H4/a C6, a H6/a C4,
a H6/a C5, d H4/d C3 and d H4/d C5)
are not observable at this contour level.
The inset shows the long range connectivities to the upfield
methyl proton resonances. Peaks marked with an asterisk are folded
in the 13C13 dimension.
Figure 3.
Partial NOESY spectrum of the capsular polysaccharide
with a 60 ms mixing time.
Only the NOE cross peaks from the anomeric and
s-a resonances are labeled. For simplicity
a H1 is labeled a1, etc.
Figure 4.
MALDI-MS/MS CID spectrum of (M+Na)+ ion of
Smith oligosaccharide; inset shows the
fragmentation pattern of (M+Na)+ ion.
