- Bioconversion of sucralose-6-acetate to sucralose using immobilized microbial cells
-
Bioconversion of sucralose-6-acetate to sucralose, an artificial sweetener has been carried out using Arthrobacter sp. (ABL) and Bacillus subtilis (RRL-1789) strains isolated at IIIM, Jammu, India. Biotransformation of sucralose-6-acetate to sucralose involves use of microbial whole cells, immobilized whole cells and immobilized whole cell bioreactor. Immobilized whole cells packed bed reactor has shown much superior biotransformation process in aqueous system using green technology, where purification of the final product is not required. The final sucralose bioproduct was directly concentrated under vacuum to get white crystalline powder. The immobilized whole cell bioreactor was used for more than three cycles continuously, thus provided much cheaper, less time consuming and easy down streaming process. Moreover, the method does not require any purification steps, which is otherwise requisite for presently available methods for sucralose production, resulting in even lower cost of overall process.

- Selective acrylation of sugars
-
Sucrose or derivatives thereof such as esters are acylated at the 4'- and/or the 6-position by reaction with a donor acyl ester, e.g. a reactive ester of an alkanoic acid or benzoic acid, in the presence of lipase. Sucrose 6,4'-diesters so produced can be chlorinated and deacylated to produce the sweetener sucralose.

- Process for the chlorination of sugars
-
Sugars and partly protected sugar derivatives are chlorinated by reaction of unprotected hydroxyl groups with thionyl chloride to form a persulphite followed by decomposition of the sulphite groups to form chlorosulphites, displacement of the chlorosulphite groups and insertion of chlorine atoms at one or more positions, characterised in that formation and displacement of the chlorosulphite groups and insertion of chlorine atoms is effected by reaction with thionyl chloride in an inert solvent in the presence of a quaternary salt of the general formula: wherein R1, R2 and R3, which may be the same or different, each represent a lower alkyl group, and R4 represents a hydrocarbon group with at least seven carbon atoms; and, when the sugar or partly protected sugar derivative has more than three unprotected hydroxyl groups, the process comprises the following stages: (a) reaction of the sugar or partly protected sugar derivative with thionyl chloride in the presence of pyridine to form a persulphite; (b) isolation of the polysulphite to remove free pyridine; and (c) reaction of the isolated polysulphite with thionyl chloride in an inert solvent or suspension medium in the presence of a quaternary salt of the general formula (I).

- Selected removal of trityl groups from trispa
-
2,3,4,3',4'-penta-O-acetyl sucrose (4-PAS), a key intermediate in the preparation of sucralose, is prepared by the selective removal of trityl groups from 6,1', 6'-tri-O-trityl-penta-O-acetyl sucrose (TRISPA) in which a catalytic amount of an aralkyl chloride or hydrogen chloride is added to a solution of TRISPA is an inert organic solvent is hydrogenated in the presence of a hydrogenolysis catalyst such a platinum or palladium.
