Abstract
The structures of naturally occurring and enzymically synthesized oligosaccharides,
consisting of fructose and glucose residues and having d.p. 3-8, in the stem
of Agave vera cruz have been investigated by using methylation analysis, mass
spectrometry, and p.m.r. spectroscopy. The naturally occurring trisaccharides were
identified as l-kestose and neokestose, and the tetrasaccharides as nystose and at
least one other related to neokestose. The higher fractions consist of mixtures of
(branched) oligosaccharides related 10 l.kestose, neokestose, or 6-kestose as basic
structures. The enzymically synthesized trisaccharide was i~entified as l-kestose,
and the tetrasaccharide as nystose. The higher fractions consist of mixtures of linear
oligosaccharides reiated to l-kestose and neokestose.
