16. In our work, moles have been used for determining the yields, and are based on methyl palmitate (limiting reagent). In other works, these yields are given in wt %. Diesters yields are calculated as twice the moles of diesters produced.

26. Distribution of regioisomers was determined on selected final mixtures, according to the HPLC method described in:. Molinier V., Wisniewski K., Bouchu A., Fitremann J., and Queneau Y. J. Carbohydr. Chem. 22 (2003) 657-669 The 6′,1′ and 6-substituted monoesters were the main regiosiomers. The other regioisomers accounted for a very low percent of the mixture

28. In solvent-free heterogeneous reactions, it has been observed that a high proportion of monoesters is often correlated with a high saponification rate. This phenomenon would come from the saponification of polysubstituted sucroesters formed in the early stages, when heating is carried on too long. Thus, the ratio for monoesters/polyesters (or diesters) can be misleading for assessing the effectiveness of the reaction if the saponification rate is not taken into account.
