CAS 18524-41-9: 1,2,3,4-DI-O-ISOPROPYLIDENE-ALPHA-D-GALACTURONIC ACID METHYL ESTER

Description: 1,2,3,4-Di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-galacturonic acid methyl ester is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of galacturonic acid derivatives. It is characterized by the presence of two isopropylidene protecting groups on the hydroxyl functionalities of the galacturonic acid backbone, which enhances its stability and solubility in organic solvents. The methyl ester functional group indicates that the carboxylic acid moiety of galacturonic acid has been esterified with methanol, further influencing its reactivity and solubility properties. This compound is typically used in organic synthesis and carbohydrate chemistry, particularly in the study of polysaccharides and pectin derivatives. Its structural features contribute to its potential applications in pharmaceuticals, food science, and biochemistry. The compound is generally stable under standard laboratory conditions but should be handled with care due to the presence of reactive functional groups. As with many organic compounds, proper storage and handling protocols should be followed to maintain its integrity and prevent degradation.
