Abstract

Abstract Surface active glycosides are made by reaction of monose or polyose with an alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst composition containing acid catalyst and reducing agent; the color properties of the glycosodes so made makes them attractive for use in cosmetic, pharmaceutical and household products. Suitable reducing agents include phosphorous, hypophosphorous, sulphurous, hyposulphurous, nitrous and hyponitrous acids. Suitable catalysts include the known etherification catalysts.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 76 words
A process for the preparation of surface active glycosides having improved color which comprises reacting a C 8 -C 18 fatty alcohol with an aldose or ketose in a mole ratio of from 1.25:1 to 4:1 in the presence of from 0.03 to 10% by weight, based on the weight of the aldose or ketose, of an acid catalyst composition comprising an acid catalyst useful in etherification reactions and an acid reducing agent or salt thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 76 words
A process for the preparation of surface active glycosides having improved color which comprises reacting a C 8 -C 18 fatty alcohol with an aldose or ketose in a mole ratio of from 1.25:1 to 4:1 in the presence of from 0.03 to 10% by weight, based on the weight of the aldose or ketose, of an acid catalyst composition comprising an acid catalyst useful in etherification reactions and an acid reducing agent or salt thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the aldose or ketose is hyrolyzed starch or cellulose.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The process as claimed in claim 1 which is carried out at a temperature of 80° to 130° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 37 words
The process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the reducing agent is selected from the group consisting of the free acid form or water-soluble salts of phosphorous, hypophosphorous, sulfurous, hyposulfurous, nitrous and hyponitrous acid and mixtures thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process as claimed in claim 1 wherein fatty alcohol not consumed during the reaction is removed from the reacted mixture in the presence of the reducing agent.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
The process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the aldose or ketose is selected from the group consisting of arabinose, galactose, glucose, mannose, ribose, xylose, saccharose, maltose, lactose and raffinose.
