In chemistry, a Haworth projection is a common way of writing a structural formula to represent the cyclic structure of monosaccharides with a simple three-dimensional perspective. A Haworth projection approximates the shapes of the actual molecules better for furanoses —which are in reality nearly planar—than for pyranoses that exist in ...
d-Ribulose is the diastereomer of d-xylulose. Ribulose sugars are composed in the pentose phosphate pathway from arabinose. [1] They are important in the formation of many bioactive substances. For example, d-ribulose is an intermediate in the fungal pathway for d-arabitol production. Also, as the 1,5-bisphosphate, d-ribulose combines with ...
Allulose, also known by its systematic name D-ribo-2-hexulose as well as by the name D-psicose, is a monosaccharide and a ketohexose. [ 2 ] [ 11 ] It is a C3 epimer of fructose . [ 2 ] Fructose can be converted to allulose by the enzymes D -tagatose 3-epimerase ( EC 5.1.3.31 ) and/or D -psicose 3-epimerase ( EC 5.1.3.30 ), which has allowed for ...
The Fischer projection is a systematic way of drawing the skeletal formula of an open-chain monosaccharide so that each stereoisomer is uniquely identified. Two isomers whose molecules are mirror-images of each other are identified by prefixes ' D-' or ' L-', according to the handedness of the chiral carbon atom that is farthest from the carbonyl.

Haworth drew the ring as a flat hexagon with groups above and below the plane of the ring – the Haworth projection. [ 3 ] A further refinement to the conformation of pyranose rings came when Sponsler and Dore (1926) realized that Sachse's mathematical treatment of six-membered rings could be applied to their X-ray structure of cellulose .
