Synthesis of 6-bromo-6-deoxy-2,3,4,2',3',4',6'-hepta-O-acetyl-trehalose (Tre(Ac)-Br) using Trehalose

Synthesis of 6-bromo-6-deoxy-2,3,4,2',3',4',6'-hepta-O-acetyl-trehalose (Tre(Ac)-Br) using Trehalose Li, Zongze, et al.Polymer 296 (2024): 126819.

Trehalose (4.10 g, 12.00 mmol) and PPh3 (6.30 g, 24.00 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (40 mL). While stirring, NBS (4.28 g, 24.00 mmol) was added in small portions over 1 hour. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 48 hours. Then, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, resulting in a yellow-brown solid. The product was washed with dichloromethane (DCM) and centrifuged to remove the supernatant. The product was then re-dissolved in pyridine (10 mL), and acetic anhydride (3.50 mL, 37.30 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for an additional 12 hours, and the crude product was poured into water. It was then extracted three times with ethyl acetate (EtOAc), and the organic phases were combined. The solution was washed with NaHCO3 and brine, dried over Na2SO4, and the solvent was removed under rotary evaporation. The crude product was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography (DCM/EtOAc = 4:1, Rf ~ 0.4) to yield a white solid (2.12 g, 25% yield).

Preparation of Trehalose Unsaturated Fatty Acid Diesters Using Trehalose

Preparation of Trehalose Unsaturated Fatty Acid Diesters Using Trehalose Ji, Suping, et al. Enzyme and Microbial Technology 136 (2020): 109516.

Trehalose diesters are gemini surfactants that may offer better surface activity than traditional surfactants. A one-step method for preparing trehalose unsaturated fatty acid diesters has been successfully developed.
Experimental Procedure: Weigh trehalose, unsaturated fatty acids, and immobilized lipase, and place them in a 25 mL screw-capped vial. Tighten the vial cap and add 10 mL of solvent. The vial is then immersed in a 50 °C water bath and continuously shaken at 150 rpm. At predetermined time intervals, 15 μL of the reaction mixture is withdrawn from the reactor for HPLC analysis.
