Description

D-Lyxopyranose (9Ci) is a specific stereoisomer of the pentose sugar lyxose, a valuable monosaccharide building block in organic synthesis and carbohydrate chemistry. This high-purity compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers developing novel pharmaceuticals, bioactive molecules, and complex carbohydrate-based materials. It serves as a critical chiral intermediate and reference standard for laboratories in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and fine chemical sectors requiring precise stereochemical control.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key chiral synthon for the synthesis of nucleoside analogs, antiviral agents, and other therapeutic compounds.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a substrate or standard in enzymatic studies, metabolic pathway analysis, and glycobiology research.
• Glycoconjugate Synthesis: Acts as a fundamental building block for constructing oligosaccharides, glycopeptides, and other complex carbohydrate structures.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the synthesis of specialty chemicals, flavors, and fragrances where specific sugar stereochemistry is required.
• Analytical Reference Standard: Provides a high-purity standard for HPLC, GC, or NMR analysis in quality control and method development labs.
