Methyl 2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranoside

Description:

Methyl 2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranoside is a carbohydrate derivative characterized by its structure, which features a furanose ring and a methyl ether functional group. This compound is a methyl glycoside of a 2-deoxy sugar, specifically derived from ribose, where the hydroxyl group at the second carbon is replaced by a methyl group. It typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols due to the presence of hydroxyl groups in its structure. The compound is of interest in biochemical research and synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the study of nucleosides and nucleotides. Its properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and reactivity, can vary based on the specific conditions and purity of the sample. Methyl 2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranoside may also exhibit biological activity, making it relevant in the fields of medicinal chemistry and pharmacology. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.

Methyl 2-deoxy-b-D-ribofuranoside

CAS: 51255-18-6

Methyl 2-deoxy-b-D-ribofuranoside is a methylglucoside that is used in the synthesis of thiourea. Methyl 2-deoxy-b-D-ribofuranoside inhibits the production of an atypical nucleotide, 5'-methylthioadenosine, which is used to synthesize thymine. It has been shown to be catalytic and may play a role in the biosynthesis of methionine and histidine. The chloride ion causes the reaction to proceed via an S N 2 mechanism. Methyl 2-deoxy-b-D-ribofuranoside can also be used in the synthesis of chloroacetic acid, azide, dimethylformamide, fluoride, anomeric alcohols, hydantoins and thionyl chloride. Methyl 2-deoxy-b-D-ribofuranoside can be chromatographically separated using silica
