Abstract: | Glucose, galactose, and mannose in H2O and D2O were ionized by an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) method. Isotope effects on fragmentation patterns of the monosaccharides were examined by deuterium replacement of the -OH groups to distinguish the isomers with a single mass spectrometer. The most abundant ions were the M+H2O]+ and MD5+D+D2O]+ for using H2O and D2O as solvent and eluent, respectively. Major fragment ions were the M−OH]+ and M−OH−H2O]+ in H2O, while those in D2O were the MD5+D−D2O]+ and MD5+D−2D2O]+. The differences in the product ions generated in H2O and D2O were due to enhancement of the strength of hydrogen bonding by the deuterium replacement. Variations of the ion intensity ratios of the M−OH]+/M−OH−H2O]+ and MD5−OD]+/MD5−OD−D2O]+ with the fragmentor voltage showed different trends depending on the kind of monosaccharides. By comparing the ion intensity ratios of the M+H2O]+ /M+ , MD5+D+D2O]+/MD5+D]+, M−OH]+/M−OH−H2O]+, and MD5+D−D2O]+/MD5+D−2D2O]+, it was possible to distinguish the isomers of monosaccharides. |
