• Beschreibung: 1,4-Anhydro-D-erythritol is a sugar alcohol that can be found in various plants and fruits. It is a reaction product of D-erythrose and glycerol, with an average formation rate of 10%. The hydroxyl group on the 1,4-anhydro-D-erythritol molecule reacts with methyl glycosides to produce an ester. Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is used as a catalyst in this process, which activates the hydroxyl group on the molecule. The reaction mechanism for this process involves three steps: elimination of water, dehydration of the hydroxyl group, and addition of methyl glycoside. This process results in a new molecule called 1,4-anhydro-D-erythritol methyl ester (AEME). AEME has been shown to have conformational properties that are different from those of its parent compound.
