Abstract

Molecular dynamics simulations reveal the entire solvation shell around a model disaccharide dissolved in the binary 1:3 molar mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide and water becomes distinctly structured (see drawing). Such preferential solvation is due to the large number of hydroxyl groups and the rich network of hydrogen bonds of a disaccharide formed with the solvent.
