- D-Galactonic acid, δ-lactone
D-Galactono-1,5-lactone is a sugar with the chemical formula HOOC-(CHOH)CO-(CHOH)COOH. It is a colorless to white crystalline solid that has a sweet taste. D-Galactono-1,5-lactone is naturally found in some fruits and vegetables such as apples, carrots, potatoes, and pumpkin. D-Galactono-1,5-lactone can be synthesized by reacting glycerol with an acid chloride in the presence of a base. This reaction generates the lactone ring via addition of water to the double bond between carbons 1 and 5 of glycerol. The lactone ring is then opened by hydrolysis to form D-galactonic acid which can be converted into D-galactonolactone by adding an enolate salt generated from an alcohol.
