β-D-Galactopyranoside, phenylmethyl, 2,3,4,6-tetraacetate

Description:
β-D-Galactopyranoside, phenylmethyl, 2,3,4,6-tetraacetate, commonly referred to as a galactoside, is a glycoside derivative of galactose. This compound features a phenylmethyl (benzyl) group attached to the anomeric carbon, which enhances its solubility and reactivity. The tetraacetate structure indicates that all four hydroxyl groups on the galactopyranose ring are acetylated, which significantly alters its chemical properties, making it more hydrophobic and less reactive compared to its non-acetylated counterparts. This modification can also influence its biological activity, as acetylation often affects the interaction of glycosides with enzymes and receptors. The compound is typically used in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving carbohydrate chemistry and enzyme interactions. Its CAS number, 83113-54-6, allows for precise identification in chemical databases. Overall, this compound exemplifies the structural diversity and functional versatility of glycosides in organic chemistry and biochemistry.
