D-PsicoseD-psicose is the D-enantiomer of psicose. It has a role as an antilipemic drug, an antioxidant, a hypoglycemic agent and a plant metabolite. It is an enantiomer of a L-psicose.Psicose is under investigation in clinical trial NCT02459834 (The Fructose and Allulose Catalytic Effects (FACE) Trial).CAS Number551-68-8Product Name(3R,4R,5R)-1,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexan-2-oneIUPAC Name(3R,4R,5R)-1,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexan-2-oneMolecular FormulaC6H12O6Molecular Weight180.16 g/molInChIInChI=1S/C6H12O6/c7-1-3(9)5(11)6(12)4(10)2-8/h3,5-9,11-12H,1-2H2/t3-,5-,6+/m1/s1InChI KeyBJHIKXHVCXFQLS-PUFIMZNGSA-NSMILESC(C(C(C(C(=O)CO)O)O)O)OSynonymsallulose, D-psicose, D-ribo-2-hexulose, D-ribo-2-ketohexose, psicose, psicose, (D)-isomer, psicose, (L)-isomerCanonical SMILESC(C(C(C(C(=O)CO)O)O)O)OIsomeric SMILESC([C@H]([C@H]([C@H](C(=O)CO)O)O)O)OCAS No: 551-68-8 MDL No: MFCD00083478 Chemical Formula: C6H12O6 Molecular Weight: 180.16In Stock.References: 1.
