Use of Acid Scavengers in Removal of Protons (Acidity) of the Reaction Mass During Chlorination of Sucrose-6-Acetate

摘要

A process is described wherein efficiency of chlorination is improved in a process for production of a chlorinated sucrose by scavenging, using an acid scavenger, of excess of acidic protons formed during a chlorination reaction between 6-O-acyl sucrose in dimethylformamide and a chlorinating reagent.
