Description

1,4-Anhydro-D-glucitol is a compound that belongs to the group of monosaccharides and has biological properties. It has also been used in the production of acetate extracts from fetal bovine erythrocytes. The ester linkages are formed between 1,4-anhydro-D-glucitol and sodium salt by reaction with acetic anhydride. The reaction mechanism has been studied in detail, and it was found that hydroxyl groups on the molecule react with sodium ions to form an ester linkage. This compound is toxicologically safe at high doses, but can become toxic at lower doses due to its acid formation potential.
