Abstract

Regioselectively functionalized 3-β-alkyl ethers of cellulose (alkyl =β-pentyl, isopentyl, dodecyl) can be synthesized using 2,6-di-β-thexyldimethylsilyl cellulose as a protected intermediate. ID comparison to the corresponding 2,3,6-tri-β-alkyl ethers, the dissolution behavior and the structure ID solution of the 3-β-alkyl ethers were investigated using light scattering. The aim of the paper ID to present the first experimental and systematic work on specific properties of regioselectively modified celluloses. The results of structure investigation ID solution are discussed ID detail and lead to a primary understanding of interactions of this type of cellulosics on a molecular and supramolecular level.
