Abstract
Complete assignments of the cross-polarization/magic-angle spinning (CP/MAS) 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum of the cellulose I-ethylenediamine (EDA) complex, which is the intermediate of the reaction from cellulose I to cellulose III(I), were performed. In this paper, we used the 13C-enriched cellulose that was biosynthesized by Acetobacter xylinum ATCC10245 strain from culture medium containing D-(2-13C), D-(3-13C), or D-(5-13C)glucose as a carbon source. After conversion into cellulose I-EDA complex by sufficient EDA treatment, the CP/MAS 13C NMR spectra of the 13C-enriched cellulose I-EDA complexes were measured. As a result, 13C resonance lines of each carbon of the cellulose moiety in the complex appeared as a singlet, suggesting that all glucose residues of the complex are magnetically equivalent. The difference in chemical shifts for each carbon between cellulose I-EDA and cellulose I(alpha), I(beta), and III(I), respectively, suggests that the conformation of the cellulose chains for cellulose I-EDA differs from that for cellulose I(alpha), I(beta), and III(I). In addition, fitting analysis of the 13C spectrum of Valonia cellulose I-EDA complex revealed that the complex contains one EDA molecule per two glucose residues in the cellulose chain.
