2-Chloro-4-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside

Description: Carbohydrates conjugated with 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl (CNP) serve as chromogenic substrates in assays for enzymes that release CNP from the conjugated carbohydrate. For example, CNP-beta-D-maltoheptaoside and CNP-alpha-maltotrioside are chromogenic substrates for alpha-amylase. 2-Chloro-4-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside is a conjugate of CNP and alpha-D-glucose. The related conjugate between CNP and beta-D-glucose, 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside, is used as a chromogenic substrate for glycosyltransferases. This product is a chromogenic substrate for enzymes that target the linkage between CNP and alpha-D-glucose. Target: Others. Smiles: O([C@H]1O[C@H](CO)[C@@H](O)[C@H](O)[C@H]1O)C2=C(Cl)C=C(N(=O)=O)C=C2
