Abstract

A process for preparing alkylglycosides by reacting an 8 to 20 carbon atom monohydric alcohol with a monosaccharide in the presence of an acid catalyst, while under partial vacuum, followed by neutralizing the reactant product with an alkaline metal hydroxide in an amount about equal on a molar basis to the amount of catalyst, and removal of the residual unreacted alcohol.
