Description

1-O,2-O,3-O,6-o-Tetrakis(Trimethylsilyl)-4-o-[2-O,3-O,4-O,6-o-Tetrakis(Trimethylsilyl)-β-D-Glucopyranosyl]-D-Glucopyranose is a highly derivatized, fully silylated disaccharide, specifically a derivative of sophorose, designed for advanced analytical and synthetic chemistry applications. This compound matters as a critical analytical standard and protected synthetic intermediate, enabling precise research in carbohydrate chemistry and glycobiology. It is primarily needed by R&D laboratories and production facilities in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and fine chemical sectors for use as a high-purity reference material and a building block for complex oligosaccharide synthesis.

Application

• Analytical Standard for Chromatography: Serves as a high-purity reference standard for Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of carbohydrate derivatives.
• Synthetic Intermediate in Glycochemistry: Used as a fully protected building block for the controlled synthesis of complex oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates.
• Substrate for Enzymatic Studies: Employed in research to study the activity and specificity of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases on silylated sugar substrates.
• Derivatization Agent Research: Acts as a model compound for developing and optimizing silylation protocols for sensitive carbohydrates.
• Mass Spectrometry Calibration: Useful as a calibrant or test compound in mass spectrometric analysis due to its well-defined molecular weight and fragmentation pattern.
• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy: Provides a characterized compound for method development and as a chemical shift reference in proton and carbon-13 NMR.

Quality Control

Our production of this advanced chemical intermediate adheres to strict in-process controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Identity and purity are confirmed via chromatographic (GC, HPLC) and spectroscopic (NMR, MS) methods. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, purity, and identification is provided with each shipment. We support compliance needs for research and development under cGMP-like quality systems where applicable.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen to prevent degradation.
