:α-D-Lyxofuranose, 1,2,3,5-tetraacetate
Description:
α-D-Lyxofuranose, 1,2,3,5-tetraacetate is a derivative of lyxofuranose, a sugar that belongs to the class of pentoses. This compound is characterized by the presence of four acetyl groups attached to the hydroxyl groups of the sugar, which significantly influences its solubility and reactivity. The acetylation enhances the stability of the molecule and can affect its biological activity. Typically, such derivatives are used in organic synthesis and can serve as intermediates in the preparation of more complex carbohydrates or glycosides. The furanose form indicates that the sugar adopts a five-membered ring structure, which is common in many monosaccharides. The compound is likely to be a white to off-white solid, soluble in organic solvents, and may exhibit specific optical activity due to its chiral centers. Its applications may extend to biochemical research, particularly in studies involving carbohydrate metabolism or the synthesis of glycosylated compounds. As with many acetylated sugars, it may also be of interest in the development of pharmaceuticals or as a building block in glycoscience.
