Procedure
IR spectroscopic examination on KBr pellets shows the typical band of the ester at 1750 cm-1. Chromatographic analysis of the product carried out in the same way as in Example 1 shows the presence of a unitary compound with an Rf of 0.92 and the absence of GM1 ganglioside and its internal ester (Rf 0.65 and 0.75, respectively). Hydrolysis with Na2CO3 as described in Example 1 produces the ganglioside GM1.
