β-D-Galactopyranose

Description:
β-D-Galactopyranose is a monosaccharide, specifically a form of galactose, which is an important sugar found in various biological systems. It is characterized by its six-membered pyranose ring structure, where the hydroxyl (-OH) groups are positioned in a specific orientation that defines its beta configuration. This compound is a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water, reflecting its polar nature due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl groups. β-D-Galactopyranose plays a crucial role in the formation of lactose, the sugar found in milk, and is involved in various metabolic pathways. It can participate in glycosidic bond formation, contributing to the structure of polysaccharides and glycoproteins. The compound is also significant in cell recognition processes and is a key component in the synthesis of glycolipids. Its CAS number, 7296-64-2, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts. Overall, β-D-Galactopyranose is essential in biochemistry and nutrition, influencing both cellular functions and dietary aspects.
