gamma-Cyclodextrin, maltosyl-alpha-cyclodextrin and diglucosyl-alpha-cyclodextrin were analyzed using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. All of these compounds have the same molecular weight (M.W. = 1297.15) and consist of only D-glucopyranose. From a comparison of the intensities in the post-source decay (PSD) fragment spectra of these cyclodextrin derivatives, correlation between the chemical structures and the relative intensities in the PSD fragment ions was found. The correlation is considered to be caused by the difference in the number of cleavage sites at the glycosyl binding. It was found that the intensity of the PSD ion resulting from one cleavage is higher than that resulting from two cleavages at a glycosyl bond. The results show that PSD fragment-ion spectrum method used in MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry is a very powerful technique for the structural analyses of the sugar-substituted cyclodextrins.

D019032 Spectrometry, Mass, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption-Ionization A mass spectrometric technique that is used for the analysis of large biomolecules. Analyte molecules are embedded in an excess matrix of small organic molecules that show a high resonant absorption at the laser wavelength used. The matrix absorbs the laser energy, thus inducing a soft disintegration of the sample-matrix mixture into free (gas phase) matrix and analyte molecules and molecular ions. In general, only molecular ions of the analyte molecules are produced, and almost no fragmentation occurs. This makes the method well suited for molecular weight determinations and mixture analysis.
