  2. Epimer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epimer

    In stereochemistry, an epimer is one of a pair of diastereomers. [1] The two epimers have opposite configuration at only one stereogenic center out of at least two. [2] All other stereogenic centers in the molecules are the same in each. Epimerization is the interconversion of one epimer to the other epimer.

  3. Psicose - Wikipedia

    D-Psicose (C 6 H 12 O 6), also known as D-allulose or simply allulose, is an epimer of fructose that is used by some commercial food and beverage manufacturers as a low-calorie sweetener. [2] Allulose occurs naturally in small quantities in a variety of foods.

  4. Epitestosterone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epitestosterone

    Epitestosterone, or isotestosterone, also known as 17α-testosterone or as androst-4-en-17α-ol-3-one, is an endogenous steroid and an epimer of the androgen sex hormone testosterone. It is a weak competitive antagonist of the androgen receptor (AR) and a potent 5α-reductase inhibitor. [1] [2]

  5. Anomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomer

    More formally stated, then, an anomer is an epimer at the hemiacetal/hemiketal carbon atom in a cyclic saccharide. [1] Anomerization is the process of conversion of one anomer to the other. As is typical for stereoisomeric compounds, different anomers have different physical properties, melting points and specific rotations.

  6. Mannose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannose

    Mannose is a sugar with the formula HOCH 2 (CHOH) 4 CHO.It is one of the monomers of the aldohexose series of carbohydrates.It is a C-2 epimer of glucose.Mannose is important in human metabolism, especially in the glycosylation of certain proteins.

  7. Altrose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altrose

    Altrose is a C-3 epimer of mannose. The ring conformation of α-altropyranoside is flexible compared to most other aldohexopyranosides, with idose as exception. In solution different derivatives of altrose have been shown to occupy both 4 C 1, O S 2 and 1 C 4-conformations. [2] Haworth projections of various forms of D-altrose

  9. Threose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threose

    Threose is a four-carbon monosaccharide with molecular formula C 4 H 8 O 4.It has a terminal aldehyde group rather than a ketone in its linear chain, and so is considered part of the aldose family of monosaccharides.
