N,N′,N′′,N′′′-Tetraacetylchitotetraose is prepared by acetolysis of chitin and has demonstrated antitumor effects. Chitin is a natural polymer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) units linked by β(1→4) glycosidic bonds. N,N′,N′′,N′′′-Tetraacetylchitotetraose is a model compound for studying the structure and function of chitin and chitosan (deacetylated chitin) and their derivatives. These studies are useful for understanding the biological roles of these polysaccharides and for exploring their potential applications. N,N′,N′′,N′′′-Tetraacetylchitotetraose is used to investigate the specificity and mechanism of action of chitinases and other enzymes involved in the degradation of chitin. By studying how enzymes interact with N,N′,N′′,N′′′-Tetraacetylchitotetraose, researchers can follow the enzymatic breakdown of chitin in natural systems and develop enzyme-based methods for chitin processing and recycling.
