Description
Levoglucosenone is a chiral bicyclic enone building block offered at a minimum purity of 95 %, with CAS number 37112-31-5 and empirical formula C₆H₆O₃. The compound has a molar mass of 126,11 g/mol, a density of 1,329 g/cm³, and a flash point of 98,22 °C, data that support safe handling and process planning in synthetic laboratories. Its rigid levoglucosenone framework provides defined stereochemistry for selective transformations, making it attractive for medicinal chemistry, natural-product synthesis, and methodology research. Small-scale packs suit screening, reference work, and early route scouting without excess inventory. Accurate CAS, formula, and physical-property data facilitate registration in electronic lab notebooks and purchasing systems. Levoglucosenone remains a valued renewable-platform molecule for laboratories exploring sustainable organic synthesis and advanced intermediate chemistry.

Questions about Levoglucosenone, min. 95 %, 250 mg
What is this article?
Levoglucosenone, min. 95 %, 250 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Carbohydrates & sugars, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
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.
