L-Glycero-D-gluco-heptose

CAS: 84142-51-8

L-Glycero-D-gluco-heptose is a hexadecanoic acid that is used as a synthetic intermediate. L-Glycero-D-gluco-heptose can be synthesized from benzyl alcohol and galactose in a two step process. The first step involves the esterification of benzyl alcohol with galactose to form an acetal, while the second step involves hydrolysis of this acetal to form L-Glycero-D-gluco-heptose. The chemical data for L-Glycero-D-gluco-heptose has been determined by gas chromatography (GC) and mass spectrometry (MS). GC allows for the separation and identification of fatty acids, oligosaccharides, and other organic compounds, which are then identified by MS.
