Abstract
Abstract Carbohydrates can be rapidly trifluoroacetylated in a homogeneous medium using N -methylbis(trifluoroacetamide). The derivatives in the reaction mixture were stable during 72 h and the mixture could be used directly for g.l.c. The use of a polar and thermally stable stationary phase (Dexsil 410) permitted analysis of mixtures of trifluoroacetylated cyclitols, hexoses, and alditols, as well as the detection of oligosaccharides up to hexasaccharides.
