title: Hydrogen fluoride-mediated synthesis of 1-thiotrehaloses involving reaction of D-glucose with hydrogen sulfide.
abstract: Hydrogen sulfide reacted with D-glucose in hydrogen fluoride solution to yield preponderantly alpha,alpha-1-thiotrehalose, beta,beta-1-thiotrehalose, and the alpha,beta anomer. Conditions were found under which the thiotrehaloses were obtained in the respective proportions of 8:5:5.
