Description

1-O,4-O,5-O,6-o-Tetramethyl-3-o-(2-O,3-O,4-O,6-o-Tetramethyl-α-D-Glucopyranosyl)-D-Fructose is a highly specific, fully methylated disaccharide derivative of sucrose. This compound is valued for its role as a key intermediate and reference standard in advanced carbohydrate chemistry research and synthesis. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and industrial R&D departments focused on glycoscience, including the development of novel sweeteners, pharmaceutical excipients, and bioactive oligosaccharides.

Application

• Chemical Research Intermediate: Serves as a critical building block for the synthesis of complex, selectively protected oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates.
• Analytical Reference Standard: Used in HPLC, GC-MS, and NMR for method development, calibration, and identification of related carbohydrate compounds.
• Glycoscience Studies: Essential for investigating enzyme specificity (glycosyltransferases/hydrolases) and studying structure-activity relationships in carbohydrate-based molecules.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Explored as a precursor or model compound for prodrugs, drug delivery agents, and novel pharmaceutical excipients.
• Flavor & Sweetener Research: Investigated for its potential in modifying taste profiles and creating new low-calorie or non-cariogenic sweeteners.
