摘要:
A process for preparing a hyperbranched polymer having a weight-average molar mass of at least 30,000, includes coupling a first prepolymer having at least three functional end groups with a second prepolymer having at least two functional end groups by a dehydration condensation reaction between the end groups in the prepolymers. The number of arms and/or molar mass of the functionalized prepolymers can accurately be adjusted, thus affecting the properties of the resulting hyperbranched polymer in a desired way. The polymer can be equipped e.g. with hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts. Also, the number of functional end groups, that optionally can be used for further chemical reactions, in the hyperbranched polymer can easily be adjusted to a desired level. The hyperbranched high molar mass polymer can be prepared in high yields without the use of organic solvents or linking compounds, which is advantageous from an environmental as well as an economical point of view.

Synergy is is obtained by combining sucralose and a sweet saccharide selected from fructose; glucose; maltose and other glucooligosaccharides; fructose mixed with glucose and/or gluco-oligosaccharides; lactose; isomaltulose; and sugar alcohols.
摘要:
A process for the chlorination of sucrose or a derivative thereof, comprises reaction of the sucrose or derivative thereof with thionyl chloride and a nitrogen base at a ratio of about 1 molar equivalent (ME) of thionyl chloride and about 1 ME of base for every ME of free hydroxyl, in a non-reactive moderately polar solvent. The process is particularly suitable for the preparation of sucralose.
摘要:
Sucrose 6-acylates, key intermediates in the preparation of sucralose, can be prepared by subjecting a sucrose alkyl 4,6-orthoacylate to mild aqueous acidic hydrolysis to provide a mixture of sucrose 4- and 6-acylates and then treating the mixture with a base to convert the 4- acylate to the 6-acylate.The novel sucrose alkyl 4,6-orthoacylates are prepared by reacting sucrose in solution or suspension in an inert organic solvent with a trialkyl orthoacrylate in the presence of an acid catalyst.
摘要:
Isomaltulose is produced by a process in which at least the isomaltulose-forming enzyme system of an isomaltulose-forming micro-organism is immobilized and then the immobilized enzyme system is contacted with a sucrose solution to convert at least part of the sucrose to isomaltulose.

摘要:
There is described a process for the synthesis of a sucrose-6-ester comprising: (a) reacting a mixture comprising sucrose and a polar aprotic solvent with an organotin-based acylation promoter, while adding a solvent capable of removing water by co-distillation, and removing water by co-distillation, to afford a first reaction mixture which is substantially free from water, followed by (b) adding a carboxylic anhydride to said first reaction mixture to afford a second reaction mixture, and maintaining said second reaction mixture at a temperature and for a period of time sufficient to produce a sucrose-6-ester, characterised in that step (a) is performed at a temperature of from 85 to 125° C. and at a pressure of from 20 to 80 kPa. In the most preferred embodiment, the polar aprotic solvent is DMF, the solvent capable of removing water by co-distillation is cyclohexane, the organotion-based acylation promoter is a 1,3-diacyloxy-1,1,3,3-tetrabutyldistannoxane, and step (a) is performed at approximately 97° C., and approximately 50 kpa, until the weight ratio of tin to water in the first reaction mixture is greater than about 26, when the tin content is measured by X-Ray Fluoresence Analyzer, and the water content is measured by the Karl-Fischer method.
摘要:
The flowability of crystalline sucralose can be increased by treating the crystalline material in a fluidised bed at ambient temperature with additions of water, followed by a fluidised drying phase. Fluidisation by means of an upward current of air at 25-35.degree. C. and added water at 20-50% by weight, e.g., 25-40%, is preferred.
摘要:
Sucrose or derivatives thereof such as esters are acylated at the 4'- and/or the 6- position by reaction with a donor acyl ester, e.g. a reactive ester of an alkanoic acid or benzoic acid, in the presence of lipase. Sucrose 6,4' so produced can be chlorinated and deacylated to produce the sweetener sucralose.
