Preparation of reducing sugar from duckweed catalyzed by heteropolyacid-based ionic liquids was written by Zhang, Xiafei;Cai, Zhenping;Ma, Hao;Wang, Furong;Yu, Yinghao;Li, Xuehui. And the article was included in Huagong Xuebao (Chinese Edition) in 2015.Product Details of 35487-17-3 This article mentions the following:
Reducing sugar was prepared by the hydrolysis of duckweed with a series of acid ionic liquids (ILs). The effects of reaction conditions such as structure of catalyst, dosage of catalyst, reaction temperature and reaction time on the yield of total reducing sugar were investigated. The results showed that, imidazole phosphotungstic ionic liquids had the good performance in hydrolysis of duckweed. The best yield of total reducing sugar is 79.8% under the condition of 140°C, 3 h, 0.4 mmol IL catalyst. The residue and raw material were characterized by using Fourier transform IR spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric (TG) and elemental anal. (EA). Furthermore, the IL recovered can be used without significant loss of activity after 5 runs (reducing sugar yield of 70.1%). In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride (cas: 35487-17-3Product Details of 35487-17-3).
1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride (cas: 35487-17-3) belongs to imidazole derivatives. Many natural products, especially alkaloids, contain the imidazole ring. These imidazoles share the 1,3-C3N2 ring but feature varied substituents. Imidazole has been usedin the lysis, wash and elution buffer for the purification of histidine tagged Sonic Hedgehog(shh-N) protein, in elution buffer in stepwise gradient for the purification of histidine tagged aldo keto reductases using nickel affinity chromatography, as a component of homogenization buffer for the purification of phagosomal compartments from dendritic cells.Product Details of 35487-17-3
