3,4,6-Tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal, min. 95 %, 250 g

3,4,6-Tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal is a protected unsaturated sugar derivative supplied at a minimum purity of 95 %, with CAS number 2873-29-2 and the empirical formula C₁₂H₁₆O₇. The compound has a molar mass of 272,25 g/mol. Acetylated glucals are widely employed as versatile intermediates in glycosylation chemistry, enabling access to modified sugars, C-glycosides, and other functionalised carbohydrate scaffolds. The defined protection pattern at positions 3, 4, and 6 supports selective transformations at the glycal double bond under controlled laboratory conditions. Research groups active in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and glycobiology can use this material as a building block for library synthesis or targeted intermediate preparation. Offered by manufacturer Carl ROTH within its biochemicals range, the product combines a clear molecular specification with a substantial pack quantity that suits both method optimisation and scale-up of laboratory protocols requiring a reliable acetylated D-glucal starting material.
