Reaction Steps
Maltose monohydrate (0.10 g, 0.28 mmoles) was dissolved in 0.16M sodium hydroxide solution (5 ml, 0.8 mmoles) and 30% hydrogen peroxide (40 l, 0.37 mmoles ) was added. The mixture was heated at 70° C. for 24 hours to produce (S)-3,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid and glycolic acid in the reaction mixture which can be separated by liquid chromatographic techniques if necessary or desired.
