Participants

Reaction Steps

Reactions of carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt (0.5-1.0% w/v) were carried out with glucosamine-hydrochloride (1.5-3.0% w/v) in the presence of equimolar amounts of base, such as a sodium bicarbonate solution (0.55-1.1% w/v) to neutralize the hydrochloride, sodium cyanoborohydride as reducing reagent (0.27-0.50% w/v), at room temperature, producing 2-amino-2-deoxy-glucose derivatives of carboxymethyl cellulose with nitrogen incorporation values of 2.60-3.07%, as shown in Table 2, page 17.
