Description

Octaacetyl Xylotriose is a fully acetylated derivative of the xylotriose oligosaccharide, serving as a crucial protected intermediate in carbohydrate chemistry. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers requiring precise chemical modifications of xylose-based structures without unwanted side reactions. It is primarily utilized in the development of novel biomaterials, pharmaceutical intermediates, and as a standard in analytical chemistry for oligosaccharide analysis.

Application

• Carbohydrate Synthesis Intermediate: A key protected building block for the chemical synthesis of complex xylooligosaccharides, glycoconjugates, and neoglycopolymers.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Used in the development of drug candidates, prodrugs, and diagnostic agents that target carbohydrate-processing enzymes or pathways.
• Biomaterial Development: Serves as a precursor for creating functionalized polysaccharide materials with tailored properties for medical or industrial applications.
• Enzymology Studies: Acts as a substrate or inhibitor for studying the activity and specificity of xylanases, acetylxylan esterases, and other glycosyl hydrolases.
• Analytical Standard: Employed as a high-purity reference standard in HPLC, LC-MS, and NMR for the identification and quantification of acetylated sugars.
• Food Science Research: Investigated for its potential role in modifying dietary fiber properties or as a precursor for novel food-grade additives.

Quality Control

Our Octaacetyl Xylotriose is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for identity, purity, and impurities is provided with every shipment.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a desiccated environment to prevent product degradation and clumping.
