D-Talose-2-13C (9CI) is a stable isotope-labeled form of the sugar D-talose, which is an aldohexose and an epimer of D-galactose. It is characterized by the presence of a carbon-13 isotope at the second carbon position, which makes it useful in various biochemical and metabolic studies, particularly in tracing metabolic pathways and understanding carbohydrate metabolism. D-talose itself is a rare sugar that can be found in certain bacteria and is not commonly present in significant amounts in higher plants or animals. The compound is typically a white crystalline solid, soluble in water, and exhibits typical sugar reactivity, including participation in glycosidic bond formation. Its molecular structure includes six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms, with the specific labeling allowing for enhanced detection in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. D-Talose-2-13C is utilized in research settings, particularly in studies involving metabolic flux analysis and the investigation of carbohydrate utilization in various biological systems.
