Product Information

• Name: Methyl β-D-fructopyranoside
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Methyl β-D-fructopyranoside is a glycoside that is made up of a pyranose ring and the sugar d-fructose. This molecule is stable because of its hydrogen bonds, which are formed between the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl group and the hydrogen atom of the methyl group. Methyl β-D-fructopyranoside has two chiral centers, so it can exist as two enantiomers. The most common form is D-(+)-methyl β-d-fructopyranoside, which has a configuration of R (right) and S (left).
