Abstract
Microwave activation as a non-conventional energy source has become a very popular
and useful technology in organic chemistry. The heating effect utilized in microwave
assisted organic transformations is due mainly to dielectric polarization, although
conduction loses can also be important particularly at higher temperatures. Only dipolar
and interfacial polarization are important factors in heating effects associated with
microwave irradiation. The short reaction times and expanded reaction range offered
by microwave assisted organic syntheses are suited to the increased demand of the
chemical industry. There are two types of microwave reactions, solvent-free and solution-phase.
Although microwave-assisted reactions are widely applied in other domains of organic
synthesis, their use in the area of carbohydrates has been limited. The purpose of
this review is to highlight the applications of microwave irradiation in the synthesis
of carbohydrates.
Key words
carbohydrate - synthesis - microwave irradiation - oligosaccharides
