D-LYXOSE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

White to slightly yellow crystalline powder

Uses

D-Lyxose is a C’-2 epimer of D-Xylose (X750750). It is a monosaccharide and a reducing carbohydrate present in maple syrup. It is used in molecular modeling calculations in the study of drug binding and recognition in relation to aldose reductase.

Uses

D-LYXOSE is a useful carbohydrate synthon.
