5-BROMO-4-CHLORO-3-INDOXYL-ALPHA-L-FUCOPYRANOSIDE

Description:
5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl-alpha-L-fucopyranoside is a synthetic compound primarily used in biochemical applications, particularly as a chromogenic substrate in enzyme assays. This compound features a fucopyranoside moiety, which is a sugar derivative, and is substituted with bromine and chlorine atoms, contributing to its unique reactivity and solubility properties. The presence of the indoxyl group allows for colorimetric detection, making it valuable in microbiological and biochemical research for identifying specific enzymatic activities, such as those of beta-galactosidase or other glycosidases. The compound is typically stable under standard laboratory conditions but should be handled with care due to the presence of halogenated substituents, which may pose environmental and health risks. Its solubility in organic solvents and water varies, making it important to consider the solvent system when utilizing it in experiments. Overall, 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl-alpha-L-fucopyranoside serves as a useful tool in the study of enzymatic processes and the development of assays in molecular biology.
