N-acetyl-D-glucosamine is a regiospecific and stereoselective hydrochloride of D-glucosamine. It is used as a building block for the synthesis of peptides, proteins, and other biological molecules. N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine is synthesized by reacting ethylene diamine with trifluoroacetic acid in the presence of hydrochloric acid. The proton at C2 in the NMR spectrum was found to be diagnostic for the compound. Solid phase microextraction (SPME) was used to extract this compound from a mixture of many components, and it was then analyzed using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine has been shown to be useful for profiling natural products and for structural analysis of compounds that contain nitrogen atoms or protonated functional groups. This chemical can also be used as an ionization
