Abstract
Crystalline D-α-fructoheptose (2-C-hydroxymethyl-D-glucose) has been obtained by the sodium amalgam reduction of D-α-fructoheptonic lactone. Some crystalline derivatives of the sugar are described and also the crystalline heptacetate of D-fructoheptitol (1,1-C-di(hydroxymethyl)-D-arabitol).Keywords
