Abstract
The title compound, C6H12O5, is the α-pyranose form of the reducing aldose 2-deoxy-d-arabino-hexose. The six-membered pyranose ring adopts a 4 C 1 conformation, with the anomeric hydroxy group in axial and the other substituents in equatorial positions. In the crystal, each of the four hydroxy groups acts as an intermolecular hydrogen-bond donor function, resulting in a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network.
