title: Synthesis and evaluation of D-gluconamides as green mineral scales.
abstract: A series of 13 D-gluconamides were synthesized in moderate to good yields and evaluated as green scale inhibitors. The crystal structures of two compounds were determined by X-ray crystallography. The compounds 6c and 6d showed a reasonable inhibition of BaSO(4) precipitation from aqueous solution (47% and 51%, respectively) that indicated the potential for these derivatives of δ-gluconolactone.
