General Description

Beta-D-Galactofuranoside, methyl is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of glycosides. It is a methyl derivative of beta-D-galactofuranose, which is a sugar molecule. Beta-D-Galactofuranoside, methyl is commonly used as a substrate in enzymatic assays to study the activity of galactofuranosidases, which are enzymes that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds in galactofuranose-containing compounds. .beta.-D-Galactofuranoside, methyl is also utilized in the study of the metabolism and biosynthesis of galactofuranose-containing molecules, which are important components of the cell wall of some microorganisms. It has potential applications in the development of therapeutic agents targeting galactofuranose-containing compounds, such as antifungal and antimicrobial drugs. Overall, beta-D-Galactofuranoside, methyl plays an important role in biochemical and pharmaceutical research.

Methyl glycosides via Fischer glycosylation: translation from batch microwave to continuous flow processing

Abstract: A continuous flow procedure for the synthesis of methyl glycosides (Fischer glycosylation) of various monosaccharides using a heterogenous catalyst has been developed. In-depth analysis of the isomeric composition was undertaken and high consistency with corresponding results observed under microwave heating was obtained. Even in cases where addition of water was needed to achieve homogeneity—a prerequisite for the flow experiments—no detrimental effect on the conversion was found. The scalability was demonstrated on a model case (mannose) and as part of the target-oriented synthesis of d-glycero-d-manno heptose, both performed on multigram scale.

Facile synthesis of methyl α- and β-d-[6-3H]galactofuranosides from d-galacturonic acid. Substrates for the detection of galactofuranosidases

Galactofuranose metabolism is a good target for the development of novel chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of some microbial infections. A simple procedure for the synthesis of methyl (methyl α,β-d-galactopyranosid)uronate followed by NaB3H4 reduction gave a straightforward access to radiolabeled substrates for galactofuranosidases.

A NEW, FACILE METHOD FOR CLEAVAGE OF ACETALS AND DITHIOACETALS IN CARBOHYDRATE DERIVATIVES

Treatment of carbohydrate acetals and dithioacetals with a dilute solution of iodine in methanol provides a simple, convenient, and high-yielding process for cleavage of the acetal functions.
