Description
6-Azido-6-deoxy-D-glucose is a specialised azide-bearing deoxyhexose for use in biochemical synthesis and chemical biology. Identified by CAS number 20847-05-6 and the empirical formula C₆H₁₁N₃O₅, it has a molar mass of 205,17 g/mol. The 6-azido-6-deoxy substitution on the D-glucose framework provides a functional group suitable for selective conjugation and labelling approaches that rely on azide reactivity, while the defined molecular parameters support precise experimental planning. This listing is, appropriate for pilot reactions, reference samples, and low-consumption research applications. The reagent is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the biochemicals portfolio and is characterised by its CAS registry number, formula, and molar mass for clear specification in laboratory records. The small unit quantity aids economical use of a niche carbohydrate intermediate and simplifies allocation across multiple projects. Scientists working in glycomics, probe design, or carbohydrate modification can specify this 6-azido-6-deoxy-D-glucose grade using the published identity data. Pack size and chemical descriptors together streamline procurement and protocol documentation.

Questions about 6-Azido-6-deoxy-D-glucose, 50 mg
What is this article?
6-Azido-6-deoxy-D-glucose, 50 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Carbohydrates & sugars, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Life Science & Microbiology.
A carbohydrate reagent is a sugar or a derivative, specified by identity, anomer where it matters, and purity. Hydrate and anhydrous forms change the mass. A culture-grade sugar and an analytical standard of the same name are different bottles.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
