Cromatografia gasosa-espectrometria de massas e derivatização assistida por micro-ondas na identificação de isômeros de glicose: uma prática para o ensino avançado em análise e caracterização de compostos orgânicos

Abstract

This work reports a practical case based on the use of microwave-assisted derivatization and GC-MS for the analysis of glucose. Using two different methods for derivatization, one reference compound and the calculated dipole moment, all the isomers of glucose were identified. Identification was corroborated for the assignment of structures using the mass spectra. With this work, students are expected to associate different types of information to solve the complex problem of the analysis of glucose.
