Synthesis of (1-+6)-oc-DL-GiucopyJ"anan (DL-Dextran) by the Ring-Opening Polymerization Method Masahiko OKADA, Hiroshi SUMITOMO, Takahito HIRASAWA, Kiyomichi IHARA, and Y oshikazu T ADA Faculty of Agriculture, Nagoya University, Chikusa, Nagoya 464, Japan (Received March 12, 1986) ABSTRACT: A new DL-polysaccharide (1->6)-IX-DL-glucopyranan (DL-dextran, 3) was synthe­ sized by the cationic ring-opening polymerization of 1,6-anhydro-2,3,4-tri-0-benzyl-/3-DL­ glucopyranose (1) followed by debenzylation of the resulting polymer (2). The anhydrosugar derivative 1 was prepared from 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-carbaldehyde (acrolein dimer, 4) via eight reaction steps. Polymerization of 1 was undertaken using o-ftuorotoluene, dichloromethane, and 1- nitropropane as solvents and phosphorus pentafluoride, antimony pentachloride, and tantalum pentachloride as initiators at different temperatures ranging from -78 to -45°C. The diad tacticities of 2 and 3 were evaluated from their 13C NMR spectra. The isotactic diad content varied from 55 to 72% depending upon the reaction conditions, being higher for the polymers prepared in a less polar solvent at lower temperature. DL-Dextran 3 having a number average molecular weight up to 3.6 x 104 was soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide and water, did not show a melting point and began to decompose at ca. 260°C. Water sorption and enzymatic hydrolysis of 3 were measured and compared with those of natural dextran. KEY WORDS Synthetic Polysaccharide I Ring-Opening Polymerization I Anhydrosugar I Dextran I Tacticity I Water Sorption I Enzymatic Hydrolysis I Dextran is a class of polysaccharides con­ thetic analogue of heparin exhibiting anti­ taining a backbone of predominantly (1 coagulant activity.

Fumes volume of solution containing 1 mL of 1 N acetic acid and in moist air and solidifies by absorption of one molecule of 10 mL of hydrogen sulfide TS (0.005%). water. Is decomposed by water; soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid and in chloroform. Boils at about 92° at a pressure of 30 mm of mercury and has a specific gravity of about 2.34 at 25°. [CAUTIONÐAntimony pentachloride causes severe burns, and the vapor is hazardous.] Assay (SbCl5): Accurately weigh a glass-stoppered, 125-mL flask, quickly introduce about 0.3 mL of the test specimen, and reweigh. Dissolve with 20 mL of diluted hydrochloric acid (1 in 5), and add 10 mL of potassium iodide solution (1 in 10) and 1 mL of carbon disulfide. Titrate the liberated iodine with 0.1 N sodium thiosulfate VS. The brown color will gradually disappear from the solution, and the last traces of free iodine will be collected in the carbon disulfide, giving a pink color. When this pink color disappears the endpoint has been reached. Each mL of 0.1 N sodium thiosulfate is equivalent to 14.95 mg of SbCl5: not less than 99.0% of SbCl5 is found.
