2-Deoxy-D-ribose
CAS 533-67-5

Description

2-deoxy-D-ribose is a Deoxysugar derivative that the ribose’s 2-hydroxyl is replaced by the hydrogen, named also the Aldopentose. Meanwhile, it’s also the 2-Deoxygenation of the D-Arabinopyranose and the component of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid). 2-deoxy-D-ribose plays a role of two side rails supporting the staircase if DNA seems as a spiral staircase, and without it, genetic information will lose its carrier. It is the key initial material deciding the efficiency of downstream drug synthesis, so its importance cannot be replaced in the field of fine chemical. Because 2-deoxy-D-ribose as the kind of limited natural reserves is produced via chemical synthesis methods, it becomes the main sources of the pharmaceuticals,cosmetics and high-purity material sectors. 

Applications

What’s the primary functions?

Drug synthesis of antiviral and anticancer: As an intermediate object of high-performance Nucleoside drugs (e.g. Lamivudine and Capecitabine), 2-deoxy-D-ribose enable the accuracy of synthesis methods with its high optical purity in order to help pharmaceutical companies reduce the difficulty of impurity control.

Skin care active ingredients: It is the most popular product of “Cellular Energetic ” in the field of cosmetics. 2-deoxy-D-ribose can produce the growth of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and promote skin microcirculation. Besides, it is an essential functional ingredients in premium skin care products designed up to standard of deeply repair and speed up the wound healing process. In the aspects of scalp and hair maintenance, 2-deoxy-D-ribose as a key precursor of DNA and ATP, directly stimulates hair follicle cells’ metabolism active and provides a amount of energies and material basis to help cells grow and divide rapidly, as a result, extending the growth cycles of hair, reducing hair loss and promoting new growth.

Advantages

Considering in the commercial applications of 2-deoxy-D-ribose, quality is not just a standard, it is a minimum requirement. Fortunately, Shandong Fulibai Chem Co., Ltd. has established a rigorous quality control system to ensure that each batch of products precisely meets your requirements:

1. Purity and Construction: 

We utilize HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography), NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) and FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) techniques to ensure that the structure and purity of each gram of material are accurate and reliable. Regarding the application of R&D (Research and Development) and pharmaceutical, we are always maintain a purity level of greater than or equal to ninety-eight percents.  

2. Control impurity strictly:

In order to minimize the risk, we will take the full spectrum test of organic impurities, inorganic impurities, residual solvents, water and potential degradation products. 

3. Consistency of physical characters: 

Record strictly particle size distribution, moisture and appearance characters. Whether you will use it for powder filled or liquid formulations, we are always ensure perfect consistency of the product batches.

4. Stable of the whole life cycle:

Based on the long term stability research, we will not only provide accuracy recommends of the shelf life and the best packing plans, but also ensure the materials maintain active stable with the recommend storage conditions (cool and ventilated warehouses, Less than or equal to 37°C).

Shandong Fulibai Chem Co., Ltd. Promises: We supply not only 2-deoxy-D-ribose powder, but also a guarantee you can trust and depend on.

FAQ

1.What’s the differences between Ribose and 2-deoxy-D-ribose?
The main difference is the molecular structure. Compared with ribose, 2-deoxy-D-ribose lacks a hydroxyl (-OH) located on the 2′ carbon atom. Therefore, the slight difference makes DNA more chemically stable than RNA contained ribose. Ribose is the part of RNA, but 2-deoxy-D-ribose is the Sugar Phosphate Backbone of DNA. 

2.Is it security when2-deoxy-D-ribose apply in cosmetics?
Yes, it is. 2-deoxy-D-ribose is security when used in cosmetics with the appropriate concentrations, which supports reproduce of cellular energies, skin regeneration and antioxidant, so it is suitable for a kink of industry of wound healing and scalp care.

3.How long is the shelf life of 2-deoxy-D-ribose?
It is about twenty-four months under the conditions of cool,dry and avoid direct sunshine. Most importantly, please to store in the sealed containers avoiding moisture absorption and degradation.

4.Can2-deoxy-D-ribose be used in combination with other active ingredients in scalp care products?
Yes, of course, it is a kind of synergist. As a lower impurity and non irritating material, it promotes the function of biotin,peptide and plant extract by optimizing cellular energy and scalp microcirculation that makes hair become more robuster and thicker.

5.How is2-deoxy-D-ribose produced commercially?
It employs a chemical synthesis process and then followed by multi-stage solvent recrystallization that ensures consistent production, high purity, and effective control of impurity.
