A concise approach to the synthesis of all twelve 5-deoxyhexoses: D-tagatose-3-epimerase-a reagent that is both specific and general
2-Deoxy-d-glucitol and 2-deoxy-d-allitol, both prepared as crystalline polyols from d-erythronolactone, are oxidized by Gluconobacter thailandicus NBRC 3254 to 5-deoxy-d-threo-hexulose [5-deoxy-d-fructose = 5-deoxy-l-sorbose] and 5-deoxy-d-erythro-hexulose [5-deoxy-l-psicose = 5-deoxy-d-tagatose], r...
