a-D-Glucopyranuronic acid, methylester, tetraacetate

Description:
α-D-Glucopyranuronic acid, methyl ester, tetraacetate is a derivative of glucuronic acid, characterized by the presence of a methyl ester and four acetyl groups attached to the glucopyranose ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and dichloromethane, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic acetyl groups. The presence of the methyl ester and acetyl groups enhances its lipophilicity, which can influence its biological activity and reactivity. This compound is often used in biochemical research and synthesis, particularly in the study of glycosylation reactions and carbohydrate chemistry. Its structure allows for potential applications in drug development, as modifications to sugar moieties can affect pharmacokinetics and bioactivity. As with many chemical substances, handling should be done with care, following appropriate safety protocols to avoid exposure or adverse reactions.
