Peracetylated sugar derivatives show high solubility in liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide

Org Lett. 2002 Jul 11;4(14):2333-5. doi: 10.1021/ol026007y.

Abstract

[structure: see text] Acetylated sugars derivatives exhibit high solubility in liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)). Peracetylated sorbitol and beta-D-galactose are soluble under mild conditions in scCO(2), high pressures are required to dissolve peracetylated beta-cyclodextrin, and peracetoxyalkyl chains impart CO(2)-solubility to amides.
