Reaktionsschritte

Rebaudioside A (0.2 mmol, 183 mg) was transferred to a 15 ml flask. Four ml each of 10% KOH and methanol were added and the resultant mixture heated to yield a homogeneous solution which was refluxed for 1.5 hours. Reaction was then judged complete by TLC analysis. After cooling to 0°; the reaction mixture was acidified to pH 3 with 10% H2SO4. The resultant mixture was then concentrated to dryness and the residue recrystallized from water to give 150 mg (99%) of pure rebaudioside C.
