Deuteron spin lattice relaxation times T1 of sucrose/D2O solutions are given as function of temperature, pressure, frequency and concentration. From the temperature dependence of the 2H -T1 the rotational dynamics of the hydrated sucrose complex and the water molecules are determined. For high pressure and high concentrations the temperature dependence of the water molecules is described by a Vogel-Tammann-Fulcher equation. The ideal glass transition temperatures TOH2O derived for the water molecules are at higher concentrations almost constant and smaller than the TOsuc of the sugar molecules
