ETHYLBETA-D-GALACTOPYRANOSIDE

Description:

Ethylbeta-D-galactopyranoside is a glycoside derived from galactose, characterized by the presence of an ethyl group attached to the anomeric carbon of the sugar. It is a white to off-white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and polar organic solvents. This compound is commonly used in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving carbohydrate interactions and enzyme activity, as it can serve as a substrate for various glycosidases. Ethylbeta-D-galactopyranoside is known for its role in the synthesis of glycosylated compounds and can be utilized in the development of glycosylation reactions in organic synthesis. Its structure features a pyranose ring, which is a six-membered cyclic form of the sugar, contributing to its stability and reactivity. The compound is generally stable under standard laboratory conditions but should be stored properly to prevent degradation. As with many glycosides, it may exhibit specific biological activities, making it of interest in pharmacological and therapeutic research.

Ethyl b-D-galactopyranoside

CAS: 18997-88-1

Ethyl b-D-galactopyranoside is a galactosylated glycoside that can be synthesized by the transfer of an acetyl group from ethyl alcohol to a sugar. It has antibacterial activity and is used in solvents as a stabilizer. The chemical structure of this compound consists of two benzene rings with an -OH group on one end, which are linked together by a covalent bond. The spacing between these two benzene rings is important for the stability of this compound, and it will break down when there is not enough space for the electron clouds to interact with each other. Ethyl b-D-galactopyranoside has been shown to be effective against tuberculosis bacteria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Mycobacterium avium complex.
