CAS 13199-25-2: 2,3-O-Isopropylidene-alpha,beta-D-ribofuranose
Description:2,3-O-Isopropylidene-alpha,beta-D-ribofuranose is a carbohydrate derivative, specifically a protected form of ribofuranose, which is a sugar component of nucleotides and nucleic acids. This compound features a furanose ring structure, characterized by a five-membered ring containing four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. The isopropylidene group serves as a protecting group for the hydroxyl functionalities at the 2 and 3 positions, enhancing the compound's stability and reactivity in synthetic applications. It is typically used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of nucleosides and other glycosylated compounds. The presence of the isopropylidene group also influences its solubility and reactivity, making it more hydrophobic compared to unprotected ribofuranose. This compound is generally stable under standard laboratory conditions but may undergo hydrolysis or other reactions under specific conditions. Its applications are significant in biochemical research and pharmaceutical development, particularly in the synthesis of biologically active molecules.
