Use and Recyclability of Scandium Tris[bis(perfluorooctylsulfonyl)amide] As A Lewis Acid Promoter for Glycosidation Reactions

In this study, the application of scandium tris[bis(perfluorooctylsulfonyl)amide] as a catalyst in glycosidation reactions was investigated. Besides being a versatile Lewis acid promoter for such reactions, the studied complex could be easily recovered from the reaction mixtures with sufficient activity to repeatedly catalyze the glycosidation reactions. Keywords: Glycosidation, Lewis acid, scandium tris[bis(perfluorooctylsulfonyl)amide], in situ reaction, recycle reaction, catalytic reaction, synthesis, glycoside.
