Abstract

The glucosides of simple fatty alcohols like n-octanol, n-triacontanol and benzyl alcohol as well as of cholesterol have been synthesised in very good yields (70-85 %) by reacting acetobromoglucose with zinc salts of the substrates, prepared in situ, and then deacetylating the glucoside peracetate. It is possible to obtain either of the anomers ( α or ß) selectively, by choosing appropriate reaction conditions.
