Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy anomeric configuration

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a very powerful tool for analyzing the conformation and molecular architecture of carbohydrate molecules. Both one- and two-dimensional (ID and 2D) methodologies have provided valuable information about small and large molecules, ranging from the anomeric configuration of a monosaccharide to the sequence of monosaccharide residues that constitute an oligo- or polysaccharide.
