0-(2-Aniinoethyl)cellulose (degree of substitution 0.14), prepared by reaction of sodium 2-aminoetliyl sulfate with cotton fabric, was hydrolyzed to glucose and mono-0-(2-aniinoethy1)-D-glucopyranoses which were identified by gas-liquid chroniatography (g.1.c.). Conlplications arise from reactions between the functional group at C-1 of the glucose unit and the aniine function of a substituent. The distribution of 2-aminoethyl substiti~ents in the 3-0-and 6-0-positions of the D-glucopyranosyl units of cotton cellulose was esiiniated to be 0.20:1.00 from direct analysis of the hydrolyzate of 0-(2-aminoethyl)cellulose, but the total substitution in tlie 2-0-position could not be estimated in this manncr. The ratio of substituents in the 2-0-, 3 -0 -, and 6-0-positions was found to be0.64:0.14:1.00 when the amino groups were converted to hydroxyl groups by diazotization, and the distribution was estimated in terms of the 2-hydroxyethyl substituents. It has been observed that a substantial fraction (57.5%) of the 2-0-(2-hydroxyethy1)-D-glucose from the cheniically modified cellulose exists in the form of the inner glucosides. Several new monosubstituted glucoses have been prepared and characterized by g.1.c. for this purpose.
