Product Information

• Name: 4-Nitrophenyl 2-acetamido-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-a-D-glucopyranoside
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Nitrophenyl 2-acetamido-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-a-D-glucopyranoside is a synthetic compound with the ability to inhibit the enzyme glutamicum. It is a radionuclide that can be used as a focusing agent for gamma cameras and has been shown to be effective against corynebacterium glutamicum and other organisms. 4NP2AG was synthesized by reacting nitrophenol with acetamide in the presence of an acid catalyst and hydrogenating the product. The synthesis employs precession chemistry, which involves rotating a molecule around its axis at high speed to increase its concentration in one area. This treatment leads to a higher yield of desired product. 4NP2AG contains two acetamido groups on the glucopyranoside moiety, which are esterified with nitrophenol and acetic acid respectively. These moieties are
