    However, acetic acid is usually also formed as a by-product of the reaction, so that the solvent is ultimately a mixture of methylene chloride, acetic anhydride and acetic acid. A very rare heterogeneous process is the fiber acetate process, which is only used for the production of cellulose triacetate as an end product.

    Dextrose monohydrate is the hydrated form of D-glucose, meaning that it is a glucose molecule with an additional water molecule attached. [39] Its chemical formula is C 6 H 12 O 6 · H 2 O. [39] [40] Dextrose monohydrate is also called hydrated D-glucose, and commonly manufactured from plant starches.

  6. Glycosidic bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycosidic_bond

    D-glucose is first protected by forming the peracetate by addition of acetic anhydride in acetic acid, and then addition of hydrogen bromide which brominates at the 5-position. On addition of the alcohol ROH and lithium carbonate, the OR replaces the bromine and on deprotecting the acetylated hydroxyls the product is synthesized in relatively ...
