<p>A novel method for making palatinitol, comprising a first step of epimerising isomaltose under conditions enabling a mixture of α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-D-mannose and isomaltose to be achieved, a second step of depleting the isomaltose in the epimerised mixture to give a roughly equimolecular proportion of α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-D-mannose and isomaltose, and a third step of catalytically hydrogenating the roughly equimolecular mixture.</p> |
