A trisaccharide chain in a saponin from the seeds of Barringtonia asiatica has been identified and sequenced as {[b-D-galactopyranosyl(1®3)- b-D-glucopyranosyl(1®2)]-b-D-glucuronopyranosyloxy} using a combination of homonuclear and heteronuclear correlation NMR spectroscopy. The 1H and 13C NMR signals of the sugar residues can be determined and distinguished from one other by use of the HMQC-TOCSY technique. Anomeric configurations were unambiguously assigned from the vicinal coupling constants 3JH-1,H-2 of the anomeric protons. Inter-glycosidic linkage assignments were elucidated using  HMBC.   Keyword: Barringtonia asiatica, carbohydrate, saponin, NMR

Rotational motion of molecules plays an important role in determining NMR spin relaxation properties of liquids. The textbook theory of NMR spin relaxation predominantly uses the assumption that the reorientational dynamics of molecules is described by a continuous time rotational diffusion random walk with a single rotational diffusion coefficient. Previously we and others have shown that reorientation of water molecules on the timescales of picoseconds is not consistent with the Debye rotational-diffusion model. In particular, multiple timescales of molecular reorientation were observed in liquid water. This was attributed to the hydrogen bonding network in water and the consequent presence of collective rearrangements of the molecular network. In order to better understand the origins of the complex reorientational behaviour of water molecules, we carried out molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of a liquid that has a similar molecular geometry to water but does not form hydrogen bonds: hydrogen sulfide. These simulations were carried out at T=208K and p=1 atm (~5K below the boiling point). Ensemble-averaged Legendre polynomial functions of hydrogen sulfide exhibited a Gaussian decay on the sub-picosecond timescale but, unlike water, did not exhibit oscillatory behaviour. We attribute these differences to hydrogen sulfide’s absence of hydrogen bonding.
