5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl B-D-*fucopyranoside

Description:
5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl β-D-fucopyranoside is a synthetic compound commonly used as a substrate in biochemical assays, particularly for the detection of fucosidase activity. This compound features an indole moiety, which is a bicyclic structure consisting of a benzene ring fused to a pyrrole ring, contributing to its aromatic properties. The presence of bromine and chlorine substituents enhances its reactivity and solubility in organic solvents. The β-D-fucopyranoside part indicates that it is a glycoside derived from fucose, a six-carbon sugar, which can be hydrolyzed by specific enzymes. This compound is often utilized in research settings to study enzyme kinetics and carbohydrate metabolism. Its structural characteristics allow it to participate in various chemical reactions, making it a valuable tool in molecular biology and biochemistry. Safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and storage guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
