Application

Methyl β-D-xylopyranoside has been used in a study to assess tetraisopropyldisiloxane-1,3-diyl as a versatile protecting group for pentopyranosides. It has also been used in a study that investigated transacetylations to carbohydrates catalyzed by acetylxylan esterase in the presence of an organic solvent.

Methyl 4-O-benzyl-2,3-anhydro-beta-D-lyxopyranoside, an intermediate for the preparation of methyl beta-D-xylopyranoside derivatives modified at C-2, was obtained in five steps in 58% yield. The synthetic sequence starts from methyl beta-D-xylopyranoside through two main steps involving regioselective enzymatic acetylation and deacetylation catalyzed

We have developed methodology for the determination of solution structures of small molecules from residual dipolar coupling constants measured in dilute liquid crystals. The power of the new technique is demonstrated by the determination of the structure of methyl beta-d-xylopyranoside

Synthesis of extracellular xylanase in Cellulomonas flavigena is induced in the presence of xylan and sugarcane bagasse as substrates. The essential factors for efficient production of xylanase are the appropriate medium composition and an inducing substrate. The increase in xylanase

Four modified substrates for acetylxylan esterases, 2-deoxy, 3-deoxy, 2-deoxy-2-fluoro, and 3-deoxy-3-fluoro derivatives of di-O-acetylated methyl beta-D-xylopyranoside were synthesized via 2,3-anhydropentopyranoside precursors. Methyl 2,3-anhydro-4-O-benzyl-beta-D-ribopyranoside was transformed into methyl 2,3-anhydro-4-O-benzyl-beta-D-lyxopyranoside in three steps. The epoxide ring opening of 2,3-anhydropentopyranosides was accomplished either
