2',3',5'-Tri-O-acetyluridine(CAS: 4105-38-8)

2',3',5'-Tri-O-acetyluridine is a modified form of uridine with three acetyl groups attached to the 2', 3', and 5' positions of the ribose sugar. It is used in various biochemical and pharmaceutical applications due to its stability and enhanced solubility. The chemical formula is C12H21NO7.

2',3',5'-Tri-O-acetyluridine is primarily used in pharmaceutical research, particularly in the development of antiviral drugs. It also serves as a reagent in nucleic acid synthesis and as a component in certain nucleoside analogues for therapeutic applications.

2',3',5'-Tri-O-acetyluridine is generally considered safe for laboratory use, but handling should be done with care. Prolonged skin contact or inhalation of dust should be avoided. Protective gloves and goggles are recommended to minimize exposure risks.

2',3',5'-Tri-O-acetyluridine should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent degradation. The optimal storage temperature is below 20°C and the relative humidity should be kept below 60% to ensure stability.
