Methyl β-D-glucopyranoside

Description:
Methyl β-D-glucopyranoside is a carbohydrate derivative, specifically a methyl glycoside of glucose. It is characterized by its molecular formula, which reflects its structure as a six-membered pyranose ring with a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to the anomeric carbon. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water due to its hydroxyl groups, which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Methyl β-D-glucopyranoside is commonly used in biochemical research and as a model compound in studies of glycosidic bonds and carbohydrate interactions. It exhibits sweetness and can be utilized as a sugar substitute in various applications. Additionally, it is stable under normal conditions but may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. Its CAS number, 709-50-2, is a unique identifier that facilitates its recognition in chemical databases and regulatory frameworks. Overall, this compound plays a significant role in the study of carbohydrates and their derivatives in both academic and industrial settings.
