The strategy facilitated the crystallization of intermediates, which allowed the scalable synthesis of salidroside. It included a reaction of penta-O-acetyl-β-D-glucose with acyl protected tyrosol in the presence of Lewis acid catalyst（ZnCl2）, followed by deacylation under basic condition（NaOMe/MeOH） to give the salidroside. The total yield of this three-step reaction was 47%. Final product and intermediates were purified by recrystallization, which significantly reduced the cost and made the large scale synthesis feasible.展开更多
