4-O-Methyl-D-glucuronic acid

Description:

4-O-Methyl-D-glucuronic acid is a derivative of glucuronic acid, characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the 4-position of the sugar molecule. This modification influences its solubility and reactivity, making it more hydrophobic compared to its parent compound. The substance is a sugar acid, which means it contains both a carboxylic acid group and an alcohol group, allowing it to participate in various biochemical reactions, particularly in the context of glycosylation processes. It plays a role in the metabolism of various compounds, including drugs and xenobiotics, by facilitating their conjugation and excretion. The presence of the methyl group can also affect its biological activity and interactions with enzymes and receptors. As a chemical entity, it is typically studied in the context of biochemistry and pharmacology, particularly for its potential applications in drug development and metabolic studies. Its CAS number, 4120-73-4, allows for precise identification in chemical databases and literature.
