Properties
Description
Pentafluorophenyl-chondroitin sulfate active ester is synthesized using pentafluorophenol activation, facilitating efficient amine coupling under mild aqueous conditions.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→77 linked)
Source
Chemical synthesis
Functional Group
Pentafluorophenyl
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Chondroitin sulfate-pentafluorophenyl can be used for its potential to develop maleimide-thiol conjugates for stable protein-polymer linkages.
