Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The alkaline decomposition of either 2-acetamido-2-desoxy-D-glucose or 2-acetamido-2-desoxy-D-mannose yields 2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-desoxy-D-mannose and 2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-desoxy-D-glucose, while the decomposition of 2-acetamido-2-desoxy-D-galactose yields 2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-desoxy-D-gulose and 2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-desoxy-D-idose.

  2. 2.

    A method was developed for the identification of the 3,6-anhydro derivatives of 2-acetamido-2-desoxyhexoses on an amino acid analyzer.
