“…With Cl-I,4-and f1-1 ,3-linked oligosaccharides, quinoxalines III and IV were formed from the reducing end after stepwise processing. 3 ) However, with Cl-I,6-linked isomaltooligosaccharides, these two quinoxalines were not formed. Therefore, to identify the quinoxalines formed from isomaltotetraose at an early stage of the reaction, a portion of the reaction mixture sampled with a heating time of 2 hr was analyzed by ion-exchange chromatography (Fig.…”
