2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-galactosylpyranosyl bromide CAS:529493-92-3 is a small molecule linker that contains several functional groups, including a pyranosyl ring, four acetyl groups, and a bromine atom. This compound is commonly used in the synthesis of carbohydrate-based conjugates, which are molecules that consist of two or more chemical components linked together by a covalent bond.
The acetyl groups in 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-galactosylpyranosyl bromide can act as protecting groups, which are used to temporarily mask certain functional groups on the molecule, allowing other reactions to occur without interference. The bromine atom can be used to attach the linker to other molecules through substitution reactions, which can be used to create a stable covalent bond between the linker and the other molecule.
