Nicotinamide Riboside
1. Basic Information
Name: Nicotinamide Riboside
Alias: NR, 3-Carbamoyl-1-β-D-ribofuranosylpyridinium chloride
CAS No.: 1341-23-7
Molecular Formula: C11H15ClN2O5
Molecular Weight: 290.70
Category: NAD+ precursor raw material, nutritional supplement intermediate, biochemical research reagent, anti-aging health care ingredient
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless with faint mild sweet taste
- Solubility: Freely soluble in water and methanol; slightly soluble in ethanol; insoluble in acetone, ethyl acetate and alkanes
- Melting Point: 110–114 °C (decomposes)
- Predicted Density: 1.48 g/cm3
- Hygroscopy: Moderately hygroscopic, prone to caking under high humidity environment
- Aqueous property: Weakly acidic aqueous solution; stable in neutral cold water; hydrolyzes under strong acid or alkaline heating to split nicotinamide and ribose
Chemical Properties
- Molecular structure: Pyridinium cation combined with β-D-ribofuranose and chloride anion; core precursor molecule for intracellular NAD+ biosynthesis
- Biological activity: Efficiently elevates cellular NAD+ levels, activates sirtuin proteins, supports mitochondrial energy metabolism
- Photostability: Highly light-sensitive; long-term UV irradiation triggers oxidation, discoloration and loss of biological activity
- Thermal stability: Stable below 60 °C; heating above 100 °C causes thermal decomposition and degradation of ribose glycosidic bond
- Chemical reactivity: Glycosidic bond susceptible to acid hydrolysis; pyridine ring can undergo mild reduction and substitution reactions; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong acid and alkali
