Product Description:
tert-Butyl ((2S,3R,4R,5R)-2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexyl)carbamate is a Boc-protected amino polyol derivative widely used as an intermediate in carbohydrate chemistry and organic synthesis. The tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group provides stable protection of the amine functionality, allowing selective transformations of the multiple hydroxyl groups present in the molecule.

This compound features a stereochemically defined hexyl backbone with five hydroxyl groups, making it highly suitable for the synthesis of complex carbohydrates, amino sugars, and biologically active molecules. The Boc group can be selectively removed under mild acidic conditions, enabling further functionalization and coupling reactions.

Due to its well-defined stereochemistry and multifunctional structure, it is commonly employed in medicinal chemistry, glycochemistry, and pharmaceutical intermediate development.

Key Features:

• Boc-protected amine functionality
• Multiple hydroxyl groups for versatile derivatization
• Defined stereochemistry for precise synthesis
• Suitable for selective protection and deprotection strategies
• High purity and reproducibility

Applications:

• Amino sugar and carbohydrate synthesis
• Glycoconjugate and polyol modification
• Pharmaceutical intermediate development
• Medicinal chemistry and drug discovery
• Functional group transformation and coupling reactions
