CAS 488-81-3

Ribitol

Description:

Ribitol, with the CAS number 488-81-3, is a sugar alcohol that is a derivative of ribose, a pentose sugar. It is characterized by its five-carbon structure, featuring hydroxyl (-OH) groups that contribute to its solubility in water and its sweet taste. Ribitol is a colorless, crystalline substance that is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. It is commonly found in nature as a component of certain riboflavin (vitamin B2) derivatives and is involved in various biological processes. Ribitol can be utilized in the food industry as a sweetener and humectant, as well as in pharmaceutical formulations. Its chemical formula is C5H12O5, and it has a molecular weight that reflects its composition of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Additionally, ribitol can undergo fermentation and is of interest in biochemical research, particularly in studies related to cellular metabolism and the synthesis of nucleotides.
