Zusammenfassung:
The O−specific polysaccharide, obtained by mild acid degradation of Citrobacrer 016 lipopolysaccharide,
consists of D−glucose, D−galactose, 2−acetamido−2−deoxy−˜−galactosgel,y cerol and phosphate
in the ratios 2 : 2:2 : 1 :l. Selective cleavage of the polysaccharide was carried out by Smith
degradation, N−deacetylation−deamination and dephosphorylation with 48 % hydrofluoric acid, which
was accompanied by unexpected splitting of one of the glycosidic linkages. The structures of the
oligosaccharides thus obtained were established using 'H− and I3C−NMR spectroscopy, including
one−dimensional NOE, two−dimensional rotating−frame NOE, homonuclear and heteronuclear 'qC,lH
correlation spectroscopy, and, for the Smith degradation product, positive− and negative−ion−mode
fast−atom−bombardment MS and MSMS with collision−induced dissociation. On the basis of these
data and the results of methylation analysis, it was concluded that the O−specific polysaccharide has
the following repeating unit structure
