CAS 608-66-2: Galactitol

Description: Galactitol, also known as D-galactitol or dulcitol, is a sugar alcohol derived from galactose. It is a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has a sweet taste, although it is less sweet than sucrose. Galactitol is classified as a polyol, which means it contains multiple hydroxyl (-OH) groups, contributing to its hygroscopic nature. It is commonly used in the food industry as a sugar substitute and in various pharmaceutical applications due to its low caloric content and potential health benefits. In the human body, galactitol can be formed from the reduction of galactose, particularly in individuals with galactosemia, a genetic disorder affecting galactose metabolism. While generally considered safe, excessive accumulation of galactitol can lead to osmotic imbalances and complications. Its chemical formula is C6H14O6, and it has a molecular weight of approximately 182.17 g/mol. Galactitol's properties make it a subject of interest in research related to diabetes and metabolic disorders.
