In principle, the scalar (<i>J</i>) coupling constant can reveal the relative orientation of the atoms in the molecule. In contrast to <i>J</i>-coupling through H-bonds reported in proteins and nucleic acids, research on <i>J</i>-coupling through H-bonds in glycans dissolved in water is lacking. Here, we use sucrose as a model system for H-bonding studies; its structure, which consists of glucose (Glc) and fructose (Frc), is well-studied, and it is readily available. We apply the in-phase, antiphase-HSQC-TOCSY and quantify previously unreported through H-bond <i>J</i>-values for Frc–OH1–Glc–OH2 in H<sub>2</sub>O.

The calculated density functional theory <i>J</i>-values for the G2OH ➔ F1O agree with the experimental values. Additionally, we detected four other possible H-bonds in sucrose, which require different phi, psi (ϕ, ψ) torsion angles.
