CAS 93780-23-5
:Hexose
Description:
Hexose refers to a class of simple sugars (monosaccharides) that contain six carbon atoms, with the general molecular formula C6H12O6. The specific compound associated with the CAS number 93780-23-5 is D-Glucose, which is one of the most common hexoses. Hexoses are characterized by their ability to exist in linear and cyclic forms, with D-Glucose predominantly found in a cyclic form in aqueous solutions. They are soluble in water and exhibit sweet taste, making them important in various biological processes, including cellular respiration and energy metabolism. Hexoses can participate in various biochemical pathways, such as glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway. Additionally, they can undergo isomerization, oxidation, and reduction reactions, contributing to their versatility in biological systems. Hexoses also play a crucial role in the structure of polysaccharides, such as starch and cellulose, which are vital for energy storage and structural integrity in plants.
