Ethyl β-D-cellobioside heptaacetate

Description:

Ethyl β-D-cellobioside heptaacetate is a synthetic glycoside derivative, characterized by its structure which includes a cellobiose unit acetylated at multiple hydroxyl groups. This compound is typically used in biochemical research and applications involving carbohydrate chemistry. Its molecular structure features an ethyl group attached to the anomeric carbon of the cellobiose, enhancing its solubility and reactivity. The heptaacetate designation indicates that seven of the hydroxyl groups in the cellobiose moiety have been acetylated, which significantly alters its physical and chemical properties, such as melting point, solubility, and reactivity compared to the parent compound. Ethyl β-D-cellobioside heptaacetate is generally stable under standard laboratory conditions but may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of moisture or strong acids. Its applications may include use as a substrate in enzymatic reactions, as a model compound in studies of glycosidic bond cleavage, or in the synthesis of more complex carbohydrate derivatives. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
