OLIGOSACCHARIDES FROM THE SAP OF SUGAR MAPLE (ACER SACCHARUM MARSH)

Soghra Khatun Haq, Gordon Albert Adams

Abstract

From the sap of the sugar maple (Acersaccharum Marsh) two trisaccharides have been isolated by column and paper chromatography. One was identified as O-β-D-fructofuranosyl-(2 → 6)α-D-glucopyranosyl(1 → 2)β-D-fructofuranoside (6G-fructosylsucrose), the other was tentatively established as either 6F-fructosylsucrose or 1F-fructosylsucrose. These trisaccharides are not related in either composition or structure to the polysaccharides present in the sap and wood.
