CAS 10036-64-3: 2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-Alpha-D-glucopyranose

Description:2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranose, commonly known as N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), is an amino sugar derived from glucose. It is characterized by the presence of an acetamido group (-NHCOCH3) at the C-2 position of the glucopyranose ring. This compound is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and exhibits a sweet taste. GlcNAc plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including the synthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids, and is a fundamental component of chitin, which is found in the exoskeletons of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi. It is also involved in the formation of hyaluronic acid and is important in cellular signaling and immune responses. The compound has applications in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and dietary supplements, often being studied for its potential benefits in joint health and skin care. Its molecular structure contributes to its reactivity and interactions in biochemical pathways, making it a significant molecule in both health and disease contexts.
