P-nitrophenyl B-L-arabinopyranoside

Description:
P-nitrophenyl B-L-arabinopyranoside is a synthetic glycoside commonly used as a substrate in enzymatic assays, particularly for the detection of arabinofuranosidase activity. This compound features a p-nitrophenyl group, which serves as a chromogenic moiety, allowing for easy monitoring of enzymatic reactions through colorimetric changes. The structure consists of a β-L-arabinopyranoside moiety linked to the p-nitrophenyl group, making it a useful tool in carbohydrate chemistry and biochemistry. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water and organic solvents, depending on the specific conditions. The compound is stable under normal laboratory conditions but should be stored away from light to prevent degradation. Its applications extend to research in glycoside hydrolases and carbohydrate metabolism, providing insights into enzyme kinetics and substrate specificity. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as with any chemical substance, to minimize exposure and ensure proper laboratory practices.
