2-Azido-2-deoxy-D-galactose
2-Azido-2-deoxy-D-galactose is a functionalized carbohydrate derivative widely used in glycochemistry, chemical biology, and molecular labeling research. Its azido group makes it a valuable building block for derivatization, bioorthogonal chemistry, and the preparation of more complex carbohydrate-based compounds. This molecule is particularly relevant in research applications requiring well-characterized azido sugars for synthesis, modification, and analytical studies.
