Neutron diffraction with isotopic substitution (NDIS) experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been used to examine the structuring of solvent around D-glucose in aqueous solution. As expected, no significant tendency for glucose molecules to aggregate was found in either the experiments or the simulation. To the extent that solute pairing does occur as the result of the high concentration, it was found to take place through hydroxyl-hydroxyl hydrogen bonds, in competition with water molecules for the same hydrogen-bonding sites. A detailed analysis of the hydrogen-bonding patterns occurring in the simulations found that the sugar hydroxyl groups are more efficient hydrogen bond donors than acceptors. From the comparison of the MD and NDIS data, it was found that while the modeling generally does a satisfactory job in reproducing the experimental data the force fields may produce sugar rings that are too rigid and thus may require future revisions.
