• Description: N-Acetyl-2-phenylthioneuraminic acid methyl ester 4,7,8,9-tetraacetate, also called per-O-acetyl-thiophenyl-N-acetylneuraminic acid methyl ester, belongs to the family of sialic acids. This neuraminic acid derivative, as well as other related compounds, such as, N-Acetyl-9-azido-9-deoxy-neuraminic acid, N-Acetyl-2-O-methyl-a-D-neuraminic acid and N-Acetylneuraminic acid dihydrate, act as ligands for the synthesis of many intermediates of sialylated carbohydrates. Sialic acid derivatives present on the surface of vertebrate cells are crucial to advances in biology, as they play a significant role in pathogen-cell interactions and act as mediators of physiological processes.
