Description

D-Glucitol 1,5-Bis(Bromoacetate) is a specialized bifunctional bromoacetylated derivative of the sugar alcohol sorbitol, serving as a versatile chemical intermediate for the synthesis of complex molecules. Its core value proposition lies in its ability to act as a reactive linker or cross-linking agent, introducing bromoacetate functional groups that can undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions under mild conditions. This compound is particularly valuable for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, bioconjugation, and polymer chemistry sectors who require precise functionalization and controlled cross-linking capabilities.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs, particularly where a hydrophilic sorbitol core is beneficial.
• Bioconjugation Reagent: Acts as a heterobifunctional cross-linker for coupling biomolecules (e.g., proteins, peptides, antibodies) to drugs, dyes, or solid supports.
• Polymer Chemistry: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for creating functionalized polymers, hydrogels, and dendrimers with tailored properties.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Utilized in the development of affinity labels, enzyme inhibitors, and other molecular probes for biological research.
• Material Science: Employed in the surface modification of materials to introduce specific reactive sites or to improve biocompatibility.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Functions as a building block for creating novel, potentially bioactive compounds in crop protection research.

Quality Control

Our D-Glucitol 1,5-Bis(Bromoacetate) is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation by atmospheric moisture.
