Studies on the Syntheses of Sucrose Fatty Acid Esters. II. Separation of the Alcoholyses Products by Liquid Column Chromatography and Determination of the Contents of Sucrose Monostearate.

Abstract

Mixed sucrose stearates extracted from alcoholyses products at various molar ratios of sucrose/methyl stearate were separated by liquid column chromatography, and the contents of sucrose monostearate were determined. According to the comparison of the observed values with the theoretical ones, it was concluded that the composition of the alcoholysis product is governed by the random distribution rule, and it can be predicted by calculation with this rule. The compositions of various products were shown.
