2,6-anhydro-5-deoxy-D-arabino-hex-5-enitol triacetate

It often serves as a carbohydrate intermediate in organic synthesis, enabling selective functionalization for the preparation of complex sugars or glycosylated pharmaceuticals. The triacetate protection allows reactions at other positions while preventing undesired side reactions. 2,6-Anhydro-5-deoxy-D-arabino-hex-5-enitol triacetate is a protected sugar derivative in which the hydroxyl groups are acetylated and a 2,6-anhydro ring structure is present.
