Chemical Structure

(3R,4R,5S,6R)-3-fluoro-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2,4,5-triol CAS 7226-39-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (3R,4R,5S,6R)-3-fluoro-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2,4,5-triol is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(3R,4R,5S,6R)-3-fluoro-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2,4,5-triol (CAS 7226-39-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H11FO5 and a molecular weight of 182.15 g/mol.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, fluorine substitution, (3R,4R,5S,6R)-3-fluoro-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2,4,5-triol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
