In order to facilitate the characterization of starch derivatives, an accurate and rapid determination method for carbonyl groups has been required. However, none of the methods hitherto reported seem to satisfy such conditions; the chemical reactions utilized for the conventional methods are usually tedious and time-consuming, and often even not specific for carbonyl groups in starch derivatives. Their sensitivity can not cover a wide range of the carbonyl concentrations which are inevitably encountered as a nature of the problem under consideration. The present authors investigated this problem by using polarographic techniques. The method utilizes the formation of polarographically sensitive quinoxaline derivatives in the reaction of carbohydrates with ο-phenylenediamine in alkaline media, in the presence of excess sodium sulfite. All the substances in the reaction mixtures except the formed quinoxaline derivatives under the conditions used are polarographically inactive and do not interfere with the determination by this method. This novel method established by the investigators does satisfy all the requirements as above stated; the method requires only very small amounts of sample, common chemical reagents, simple reaction procedures with short reaction time, and a classical polarographic apparatus. The investigations were started with simple and small carbohydrates as glucose and maltose, and extended to those with high molecular weights above 1,000,000 as amylose and amylopectin. The results obtained by this method were successfully compared in a wide range of the carbonyl concentrations, with those obtained by other conventional methods, each of which may satisfy some part of the problem. The method was also applied to the determination of carbonyl groups in periodate oxidized starch at various oxidation degrees. It would be interesting to predict that this novel method utilizing the chemical reaction of carbohydrates with ο-phenylenediamine will be not only popular as a practical method of determination of carbonyl groups in starch derivatives, but also important as a useful method to obtain various informations on carbohydrate chemistry in its fundamental problems.
