5,6-O-Isopropylidene-L-ascorbic acid

5,6-O-异丙叉基-L-抗坏血酸

5,6-O-Isopropylidene-L-ascorbic acid is an access to the vitamin C molecule. It can be synthesized from L-ascorbic acid by reacting with isopropyl iodide and hydrochloric acid. Cryo-electron microscopy has been used to identify the location of 5,6-O-Isopropylidene-L-ascorbic acid in human ganglion cells. This compound has a number of physiological activities and is one of the most powerful antioxidants found in humans. 5,6-O-Isopropylidene-L-ascorbic acid is a precursor to retinoic acid and hydrogen chloride, which are important for erythropoietin production in the kidneys. Dehydroascorbate (DHA) is formed when 5,6-O-Isopropylidene-L-ascorbic acid reacts with hydrogen chloride.
