Alkaline modification of carrageenans. Part III. Use of mild alkaline media and high ionic strengths
The cyclization reaction (formation of 3,6-anhydro-α-D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-α-D-galactose 2-sulfate units from α-D-galactose 6-sulfate and 2,6-disulfate residues, respectively) of carrageenans follows a pseudo-first-order kinetics. This reaction can be carried out, at reasonable rates, in sodiu...

Sumario: | The cyclization reaction (formation of 3,6-anhydro-α-D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-α-D-galactose 2-sulfate units from α-D-galactose 6-sulfate and 2,6-disulfate residues, respectively) of carrageenans follows a pseudo-first-order kinetics. This reaction can be carried out, at reasonable rates, in sodium hydroxide solutions less concentrated than those usually employed or by using a milder base such as sodium carbonate. Rate constants were also determined at a fixed sodium hydioxide concentration but using different ionic strengths. No specific salt effects were observed at a given sodium hydroxide concentration and ionic strength. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. * To whom correspondence should be addressed. |
