Abstract
Conformational mobility of tetruloses, 2-pentuloses, D-3-pentulose and 4-deoxy-L-pentulose was studied by measuring temperature dependences of CD spectra in the region +40°C to -140°C in a methanol-ethanol (1:4) mixture. The changes in spectra reflect the population of rotamers around bonds to the carbonyl chromophore. The most stable conformers were determined by PCILO quantum chemical calculation.
