What Is 1,4-Sorbitan?
1,4-Sorbitan (CAS 27299-12-3) is 1,4-anhydro-D-glucitol (also called 1,4-anhydro-D-sorbitol), a tetrahydrofuran-type anhydro sugar alcohol derived from D-glucitol/sorbitol chemistry. Molecular formula C6H12O5; molecular weight about 164.16 g/mol. Always match CAS 27299-12-3 on the batch COA.
Supplier and synthesis literature describe it as a useful intermediate in prostaglandin-related synthesis and as a defined carbohydrate / polyol building block for specialty organic chemistry. It is also referenced in isosorbide-related impurity / analytical-standard catalogs. Monuo Chemical supplies 1,4-Sorbitan as a specialty chemical raw material under Custom synthesis, with batch identity documentation (COA / SDS). Finished-product claims and process filings remain the customer’s responsibility. Confirm assay and stereochemical identity against the batch COA for your intended method.
