Description

1-O,2-O,3-O,4-o-Tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)-β-D-xylopyranose is a fully silylated derivative of the pentose sugar D-xylose, designed for advanced synthetic and analytical applications. This compound is critical for researchers and manufacturers requiring a protected, non-reactive sugar intermediate with high volatility and solubility in organic media. It is primarily utilized in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates, nucleosides, and as a standard in chromatographic analysis for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and fine chemical industries.

Application

• Carbohydrate Chemistry Intermediate: A key protected building block for the synthesis of oligosaccharides, glycoconjugates, and modified sugars.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Used in the development of nucleoside analogs, antiviral agents, and other bioactive molecules containing sugar moieties.
• Analytical Standard: Serves as a volatile derivative for Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of sugars.
• Glycobiology Studies: Employed in enzymatic and chemical glycosylation studies where a fully protected sugar donor is required.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a precursor for chiral synthons and specialty chemicals in asymmetric synthesis.
• Material Science: Potential use in the surface functionalization of materials and the creation of sugar-based polymers.

Quality Control

Every batch of 1-O,2-O,3-O,4-o-Tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)-β-D-xylopyranose is manufactured under controlled conditions and undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our quality system ensures compliance with relevant industry standards for research and fine chemical use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (typically by GC or HPLC), identity confirmation (by IR, NMR), and specific impurity profiles is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are securely sealed when not in use. Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials.
