The nitrous acid depolymerization of chitosan enables the synthesis of singular chitosan oligosaccharides (COS) since their reducing-end unit is composed of 2,5-anhydro-d-mannofuranose (amf). In the present study, we describe a chemical method for the reducing-end conjugation of COS-amf by the commercially available dioxyamine <i>O,O'</i>-1,3-propanediylbishydroxylamine in high mass yields. The chemical structure of resulting dioxyamine-linked COS-amf synthesized by both oximation and reductive ...[more]
