Embodiment 1

[0047] Example 1 Manufacture of gluconic acid and glucaric acid

[0048] 15 g of D-glucose (from Aldrich) were dissolved in 21.5 ml of demineralized water (=39.9% dry matter). 1.056 g TEMPO (from Aldrich) was added to the glucose solution. Add 0.0206g soybean peroxidase (SIGMA TM ), the reaction was carried out at 25° C. for 24 hours with stirring. Hydrogen peroxide (30%, Perhydrol from Merck TM ) was continuously added at a dose rate of 0.138 mmol / min. The pH was kept constant at 7 by adding 4M NaOH (from Merck).

[0049] After 24 hours, the reaction mixture was analyzed by HPLC. Samples were analyzed on two different columns at 75°C at 1ml / min: Shodex K-S-801 (Na + Form) column, carried out with water; Shodex KC-811 (H + form) column, with 0.01M H 2 SO 2 conduct. The two chromatograms obtained were used to determine the levels of glucuronic acid (4.4%), gluconic acid (86.5%), glucaric acid (6.8%) obtained by oxidation reactions.

Embodiment 2

[0050] Embodiment 2 Determination of aldehyde content in oxidized trehalose (test 1)

[0051] Oxidation process

[0052] For 20g D-trehalose (ASCEND from Cargill TM ) was carried out in laboratory experiments using soybean peroxidase / hydrogen peroxide and TEMPO (from Aldrich) as mediators. Use the following conditions:

[0053] -Dry matter D-trehalose: 40% d.s.

[0054] - Molar ratio TEMPO / primary alcohol functionality * : 1 / 40

[0055] -Soybean peroxidase (OrganicTec TM ): 10 000 units / mol primary OH

[0056] - Hydrogen peroxide (30% Perhydrol TM ): 0.01ml / min

[0057] - 4M sodium hydroxide solution for pH stat control at pH 7

[0058] - Reaction temperature: 25°C

[0059] * The primary alcohol function mentioned above has the formula -CH 2 -OH, but it can be abbreviated as "primary OH".

[0060] The reaction medium is continuously stirred with a magnetic stirrer. Samples were taken after increasing reaction times (10, 21, 28 and 36 hours) corresponding to the s...

Embodiment 3

[0070] Example 3 Determination of aldehyde content in oxidized trehalose (test 2)

[0071] Oxidation process

[0072] Selective C6-oxidation of 20 g of D-trehalose was carried out in laboratory experiments using soybean peroxidase / hydrogen peroxide and TEMPO (from Aldrich) as mediators.

[0073] Use the following conditions:

[0074] -Dry matter D-trehalose: 40% d.s.

[0075]-Molar ratio TEMPO / primary OH: 1 / 40

[0076] -Soybean peroxidase (OrganicTec TM ): 5000 units / mol primary OH

[0077] - Hydrogen peroxide (30% Perhydrol TM ): 0.01ml / min

[0078] - 4M sodium hydroxide solution for pH stat control at pH 5, pH 6, pH 7 and pH 8

[0079] - Reaction temperature: 25°C

[0080] Samples were removed after increasing the reaction time. The corresponding sodium hydroxide consumption is shown in Table 2.

[0081] Carboxyl and aldehyde determination

[0082] In addition to NaOH consumption, standard Blumenkrantz (specific uronic acid quantification) and HPLC methods were us...

Abstract

The invention provides a method of oxidising carbohydrates and / or carbohydrate derivatives having primary alcohol groups comprising contacting a reaction medium containing said carbohydrates and / or carbohydrate derivatives with a nitroxy radical mediator and a peroxidase enzyme, characterised in that the initial reaction medium contains at least 10% by weight carbohydrates and / or carbohydrate derivatives, in that the peroxidase enzyme is an oilseed peroxidase and in that a hydroperoxide and an alkali compound are gradually added to the reaction medium such that its pH is maintained at between 3.5 and 10.0 (pH-Stat); the invention also relates to the use of said method in a process for producing gluconic acid, glucaric acid and / or D-glucuronolactone.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods for the oxidation of carbohydrates and / or carbohydrate derivatives using peroxidases and nitroxyl mediators. In particular, the invention relates to methods for the selective oxidation of primary alcohol groups to carboxyl groups. Background of the invention [0002] Oxidation of primary alcohol groups on carbohydrates (and carbohydrate derivatives) leads to the formation of aldehydes (R'-CHO) and / or carboxyl groups (R'-COOH). [0003] The formation of aldehydes and carboxyl groups increases the reactivity, versatility and solubility of the resulting compounds, which therefore have a greater number of industrial applications (for example, in the food, textile and paper industries). As a result, there has been great interest in developing methods that allow selective oxidation of primary alcohol groups. One such approach involves the use of nitroxyradical mediators. [0004] Numerous nitroxy-mediated oxidation...
