Microwave-assisted synthesis of long-chain alkyl glucopyranosides (2008)
Journal Article
Ferlin, N., Duchet, L., Kovensky, J., & Grand, E. (2008). Microwave-assisted synthesis of long-chain alkyl glucopyranosides. Carbohydrate Research, 343, 2819-2821. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carres.2008.05.013

Long-chain (C6 to C16) alkyl glucopyranosides have been synthesized using microwave irradiation. Yields and anomeric ratios can be controlled under precise and short irradiation times (few min). Comparison with classical heating showed a better effic... Read More about Microwave-assisted synthesis of long-chain alkyl glucopyranosides.

Synthesis of sugar-based chelating surfactants for metal removal from wastewater (2008)
Journal Article
Ferlin, N., Grassi, D., Ojeda, C., Castro, M. J., Grand, E., Fernández Cirelli, A., & Kovensky, J. (2008). Synthesis of sugar-based chelating surfactants for metal removal from wastewater. Carbohydrate Research, 343, 839-847. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carres.2008.01.015

Four chelating surfactants were synthesized in a few steps from octyl d-glucosides. Their main interfacial properties were determined, and their flotation properties were evaluated on a laboratory scale using Fe(III) as a model contaminant metal. The...
