Abstract:
A mixture of sugars is produced by base catalysed condensation of formaldehyde. The sugars range from four to seven carbon atoms, mainly six. They are sufficiently toxic to kill rats at 50% of the diet level, possibly due to the multiplicity of species as well as the presence of branched sugars. Manipulation of the reaction conditions can effect a 75% selectivity to racemic glucose, but its economic recovery is improbable. The formose sugars were tested for cancer tumor growth suppression activity, but none was found.
