Description

Ba-L-Arabinofuranoside, Methyl 5-Thio-, 5-Acetate (9Ci) is a specialized thioglycoside derivative, a key building block in synthetic carbohydrate chemistry. Its modified arabinofuranose structure, featuring a thioether linkage and an acetate protecting group, makes it a valuable precursor for the synthesis of nucleoside analogs and complex oligosaccharides. This high-purity intermediate is essential for researchers and manufacturers in pharmaceutical development, particularly for antiviral and anticancer drug discovery programs, as well as in advanced biochemical research.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Critical precursor in the synthesis of novel nucleoside analogs with potential antiviral or anticancer activity.
• Glycochemistry Research: Serves as a key building block for constructing complex oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates for biological studies.
• Prodrug Development: Used in designing masked glycoside prodrugs to improve the bioavailability and targeting of therapeutic agents.
• Enzyme Inhibitor Synthesis: Employed in creating transition-state analogs that act as inhibitors for glycosidases and other carbohydrate-processing enzymes.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Utilized to develop labeled or tagged sugar derivatives for investigating carbohydrate-protein interactions and metabolic pathways.
• Material Science: Potential monomer for creating novel bio-based polymers with specific chemical functionalities.

Quality Control

Our Ba-L-Arabinofuranoside, Methyl 5-Thio-, 5-Acetate (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and moisture. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to ensure 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 place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
