Description

D-Glucuronic Acid 3-Phenylpropyl Ester is a specialized carbohydrate derivative where glucuronic acid is esterified with a 3-phenylpropyl group. This compound is significant as a versatile synthetic intermediate and a potential building block for designing novel bioactive molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and biochemical research. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for applications in drug discovery, prodrug synthesis, and the development of targeted delivery systems.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of prodrugs designed for targeted release or improved bioavailability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Used as a substrate or inhibitor in enzymatic studies, particularly those involving glucuronidation pathways and carbohydrate-processing enzymes.
• Glycoconjugate Synthesis: Acts as a building block for the chemical and enzymatic synthesis of complex glycoconjugates, glycopolymers, and neoglycoproteins.
• Agrochemical Development: Employed in research for creating novel, more selective herbicides or plant growth regulators with specific modes of action.
• Cosmetic Science: Investigated for potential use in advanced skincare formulations, leveraging its derivatized sugar structure for skin conditioning or delivery.
• Material Science: Explored as a monomer or cross-linker for creating novel biodegradable or biocompatible polymers with unique properties.

Quality Control

Our D-Glucuronic Acid 3-Phenylpropyl Ester is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and moisture content. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or development specifications.

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 nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere.
