title: Peracetylated sugar derivatives show high solubility in liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide.
abstract: [structure: see text] Acetylated sugars derivatives exhibit high solubility in liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)). Peracetylated sorbitol and beta-D-galactose are soluble under mild conditions in scCO(2), high pressures are required to dissolve peracetylated beta-cyclodextrin, and peracetoxyalkyl chains impart CO(2)-solubility to amides.
