Chemical Structure

N-Acetyl-3-fluoro-neuraminic acid sodium CAS 921-40-4 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, N-Acetyl-3-fluoro-neuraminic acid sodium (C11H18FNO9) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 327.26 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
