The mass spectra of the trimethylsilyl ethers of-D-glucose and its 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6-^ 7, 1-d, and 6, 6-^ 2 analogs, of methyl-D-glucopyranoside, of ethyl ß-D-galactofuranoside, and of methyl 3-acetamido-3-deoxy-aD-glucopyranoside and its NHCOCD 3 analog are presented. The fragmentations of these derivatives are discussed in detail, using deuterium-labeling and exact-mass data from high-resolution measurements to support the inter-pretations. The mass spectra of these model compounds are used in the identification of minor components formed in the trimethylsilylation of equilibrium mixtures of D-galactose, D-glucose and three of its deuterated analogs, 3-O-methyl-D-glucose, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose. The same approach was used todetermine the products from glycosidation of D-galactose and D-glucose. The mass spectra of these minor components were obtained from a coupled gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer. Furanose and furanoside structures can be assigned to the minor components. n recent years, classical methods of structure determination in carbohydrate chemistry havebeen supplemented by newer techniques. The application of gas-liquid partition chromatography (glpc) to carbohydrate derivatives introduced a convenient method for the examination and small-scale separation of complex mixtures, such as those resulting from hydrolysis of polysaccharides. 3 Methyl ethers, 4 acetates, 5, 6 and trimethylsilyl (TMSi) ethers7 of carbohydrates have been shown to be amenable to this method of analysis. Trimethylsilyl ethers appear to be the most suitable both with regard to their ease of preparation and to the excellent separations which havebeen achieved. 7 The successful use of TMSi derivatives in mass-spectral investigations of hydroxy steroids, 8-11 and the recent demonstrations of the utility of TMSi ethers in the investigation of complex carbohydrate-containing anti-biotics12-16 and nucleotides and related substances, 17
