Uses and synthesis of D-Arabinpyranose powder

D-Arabinpyranose powder White crystal, tasteless. Melting point 162-164℃, relative density 1.585, refractive index 1.585, [α] D20-104.3 ° (C=3, H2O). Slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble in methanol, ether, acetone. The intermediate of cytarabine, D-Arabinpyranose, can also be used as a biochemical reagent (as a bacterial culture agent). D-Arabinpyranose is a monosaccharide that has strong growth inhibition effect on C. elegans with IC50 value of 7.5 mM.

Functions of D-Arabinpyranose powder

Research reagents: D-arabinopyranose is mainly used as a research reagent, for example:
Carbohydrate chemistry research: as a model compound for studying sugar chemical properties, sugar ring structure, glycoside synthesis, etc.
Biochemical research: used to study sugar metabolic pathways, enzyme substrate specificity, glycoprotein structural analysis, etc.
Drug development: as a starting material or intermediate for medicinal chemistry research, used to synthesize carbohydrate drugs or sugar conjugate drugs.
Drug development (potential applications): Based on the biological activity of carbohydrate compounds, D-arabinopyranose and its derivatives may have potential drug development value:

Antimicrobial drugs: If D-arabinopyranose or its derivatives are found to have inhibitory activity against certain microorganisms, they may be developed into new antibacterial or antifungal drugs.
Anti-tumor drugs: Some carbohydrate derivatives have anti-tumor activity, and D-arabinopyranose may also become a potential candidate for the development of anti-tumor drugs.
Immunomodulators: Some carbohydrate polysaccharides have immunomodulatory effects, and D-arabinopyranose-related polysaccharides or glycosides may have immunomodulatory potential.
It should be emphasized that these drug development applications are still in the very early research stage and there is still a long way to go before practical application.

Food industry (limited application): Since D-arabinopyranose is not very sweet and its source is relatively limited, its application in the food industry is very limited. It is not used as a major food sweetener. It may be studied as an ingredient in some special functional foods or health foods, but there are few application cases in this regard.

Application of D-Arabinpyranose powder

Possible benefits (based on speculation or preliminary research): The following are some potential directions based on speculation or preliminary research, but the evidence is very limited and is for reference only:

Prebiotic potential (speculation): Some carbohydrate polysaccharides can act as prebiotics and promote the growth of intestinal probiotics. If polysaccharides containing D-arabinopyranose are found to have similar effects, they may have potential prebiotic potential. However, relevant research is currently lacking.

Immunomodulatory potential (speculation): Some carbohydrate compounds have immunomodulatory activity. D-arabinopyranose and its derivatives may also have certain immunomodulatory potential.

Lack of human research: There is currently almost no research on the human health benefits of D-arabinopyranose. Existing research mainly focuses on in vitro experiments, animal experiments or basic biochemistry research. The health benefits of D-arabinopyranose should not be exaggerated without human clinical evidence.

Production methodprocess of D-Arabinpyranose powder

D-Arabinpyranose can be prepared by hydrogen peroxide oxidation with calcium gluconate and iron trivalent ion. It can also be isolated from plants.
