Ribofuranose , CAS:15761-67-8

RibofuranoseD-ribofuranose is a ribofuranose having D-configuration. It is a ribofuranose and a D-ribose.D-Ribose, also known as ribose, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pentoses. These are monosaccharides in which the carbohydrate moiety contains five carbon atoms. D-Ribose exists as a solid, very soluble (in water), and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). D-Ribose has been found throughout most human tissues, and has also been detected in most biofluids, including blood, urine, saliva, and cerebrospinal fluid. D-Ribose exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. D-Ribose can be converted into D-ribose 5-phosphate through its interaction with the enzyme ribokinase. In humans, D-ribose is involved in the pentose phosphate pathway. D-Ribose is also involved in a few metabolic disorders, which include glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, transaldolase deficiency, and ribose-5-phosphate isomerase deficiency. Outside of the human body, D-ribose can be found in a number of food items such as fruits, other soy product, chinese mustard, and cucurbita (gourd). This makes D-ribose a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.CAS Number15761-67-8Product NameD-ribofuranoseIUPAC Name(3R,4S,5R)-5-(hydroxymethyl)oxolane-2,3,4-triolMolecular FormulaC5H10O5Molecular Weight150.13 g/molInChIInChI=1S/C5H10O5/c6-1-2-3(7)4(8)5(9)10-2/h2-9H,1H2/t2-,3-,4-,5?/m1/s1InChI KeyHMFHBZSHGGEWLO-SOOFDHNKSA-NSMILESC(C1C(C(C(O1)O)O)O)OSynonymsRibofuranose (7CI,8CI,9CI)Canonical SMILESC(C1C(C(C(O1)O)O)O)OIsomeric SMILESC([C@@H]1[C@H]([C@H](C(O1)O)O)O)OCOA:Name:?Ribofuranose? ? ? ? ?M.F.:?C5H10O5? ? ? ? ??M.W.: 150.13Batch No:?20110228? ? ? ? ?CAS:?15761-67-8? ? ? ?Quantity:10gfrom1000gItemsStandardsResultsAppearanceWhite??powderPositiveSolubilityReadily soluble in water andinsoluble in etherPositiveNMR and MSShould complyCompliesIdentificationIR and TLCPositiveSpecific rotation( [?]D, in H2O, 24h)-18?o?~ -22?o-20.5oLoss Weight On DrynessMax. 1%CompliesTLCOne spotCompliesAssay (HPLC)Min. 98%99.6%
