Description

Isopropyl β-D-Thioglucopyranoside CAS NO 19165-11-8 is a specialized thioglycoside derivative, serving as a crucial building block and biochemical reagent in advanced organic synthesis and life science research. Its core value lies in its role as a protected glycosyl donor or a precursor for synthesizing complex carbohydrate mimetics and glycoconjugates. This high-purity compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and agrochemical industries, where precise molecular construction is paramount.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of novel glycosidase inhibitors, antiviral agents, and other therapeutic compounds targeting carbohydrate-processing enzymes.
• Glycobiology Research: Used as a substrate or inhibitor in enzymatic studies to investigate glycosyltransferase and glycosidase mechanisms and functions.
• Carbohydrate Chemistry: Acts as a versatile glycosyl donor with an anomeric thioleaving group for the stereoselective construction of O-glycosidic, S-glycosidic, and C-glycosidic bonds.
• Probe and Label Development: Serves as a starting material for creating fluorescent or affinity-tagged carbohydrate probes to study cell-surface interactions and metabolic pathways.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Intermediate in the development of new generation pesticides and plant growth regulators that mimic or interfere with natural sugar signaling.

Quality Control

Our Isopropyl β-D-Thioglucopyranoside is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and moisture. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP starting material requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
