2,3,4-Tri-O-acetyl-D-xylopyranose

CAS: 55018-54-7

2,3,4-Tri-O-acetyl-D-xylopyranose is a lactide sugar that is found in the cell walls of many plants. It is synthesized from D-xylose by enzymatic condensation with acetylated L-malic acid and has been shown to be biodegradable. 2,3,4-Tri-O-acetyl-D-xylopyranose has been shown to have physical properties that are similar to those of cellulose, such as crystallization and solubility in water. The compound also has an NMR spectrum that contains peaks at δ = 0.8 (triplet), 1.1 (singlet) and 1.5 ppm (doublet). The hydrophobic group on the molecule is thought to contribute to its hydrophilicity.
