Description
1,2:5,6-Di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-glucofuranose is a reagent used for chemical synthesis. 1,2:5,6-Di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-glucofuranose (or diacetone-D-glucose (DAG)) can be used to create racemically pure alkane- and arenesulfinyl chlorides with a tertiary amine. Oxidation and reduction can lead to an allofuranose derivative.
