CAS 1772-03-8: Galactosamine hydrochloride
Description:Galactosamine hydrochloride is an amino sugar derivative of galactose, characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2) at the C-2 position. It is typically encountered as a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. The hydrochloride form enhances its stability and solubility in aqueous solutions. Galactosamine plays a significant role in the biosynthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids, contributing to cellular structure and function. It is also involved in metabolic pathways and has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications, particularly in the context of joint health and inflammation. The compound is generally handled with standard laboratory safety precautions, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Its molecular formula reflects its composition of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and chlorine, and it is important to consider its properties in the context of its reactivity and interactions with other biochemical substances.
