2-Deoxy-D-Galactose is a monosaccharide sugar that is structurally similar to D-galactose but lacks the hydroxyl group at the 2-position of the carbon chain. It belongs to the aldose class of monosaccharides and is classified as a deoxy sugar due to the absence of the oxygen atom at the 2-carbon position.

 

 

1. Biochemical Research: It is used as a biochemical reagent in research studies to investigate the metabolic pathways and enzymatic activities related to galactose metabolism.
2. Glycobiology: 2-Deoxy-D-Galactose serves as a tool in glycobiology for studying the structure and function of glycoproteins and glycolipids.
3. Chemical Synthesis: It can be used as a starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates and glycoproteins.
