Product Information
2,5:3,4-Dianhydro-D-altritol is a hydrogenated form of the sugar D-altritol. It can be prepared by hydrogenolysis of D-mannitol or D-sorbitol with palladium on charcoal at 200°C. The 2,5:3,4-dianhydro form can be converted to the 3,4-dianhydro form by hydrolysis with sodium hydroxide. Hydrogenation of the 3,4 form produces 2,5:3,4-dianhydro-D-altritol. This compound has been used in high energy density fuels and as a trackable marker for hydrogenolysis experiments.
2,5:3,4-Dianhydro-D-altritol is soluble in alcohols and extracted with ether in organic solvents such as acetone or chloroform. It oxidizes readily to the corresponding d
