Description

2,3,4,6-Tetra-o-Acetyl-Ss-D-Glucose is a key acetylated monosaccharide derivative, serving as a vital chiral building block and protective intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. Its primary value lies in enabling the precise construction of complex carbohydrate structures and glycoconjugates, which are essential for pharmaceutical and biochemical research. This high-purity intermediate is critically needed by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and fine chemical sectors for developing novel therapeutics, diagnostic agents, and specialty materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial precursor in the synthesis of nucleoside analogs, antiviral drugs, and other glycosylated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Glycochemistry Research: Used as a protected glycosyl donor or acceptor for the controlled synthesis of oligosaccharides, glycopeptides, and glycolipids.
• Bioconjugate Development: Serves as a starting material for creating labeled sugars, probes, and linkers used in diagnostic assays and targeted drug delivery systems.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Employed as a chiral synthon for the asymmetric synthesis of complex natural products and specialty chemicals.
• Carbohydrate Chemistry: Fundamental reagent for studying glycosylation reactions, enzyme mechanisms, and carbohydrate-protein interactions.

Quality Control

Our 2,3,4,6-Tetra-o-Acetyl-Ss-D-Glucose is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research and synthesis. Products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and optical rotation measurement, to confirm identity, purity, and chiral integrity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

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). The compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent hydrolysis of the acetyl groups.
