31. AU 3-deoxy-2-ulosonic acids are drawn in their openchain form for clarity, although they exist in solution as a mixture of interconverting open-chain and cyclic α-/ β-pyranose forms. NMR spectroscopic analysis of the structures of some 3-deoxy-ulosonic acids is further complicated by their ability to access cyclic α-/β-furanose forms.

38. 5-sugars D-arabinose, L-arabinose, D-lyxose, Llyxose, D-ribose, L-ribose, D-xylose, and L-xylose were screened for KDG-aldolase activity in this study.
39. (rac)-Glyceraldehyde was employed in this large-scale preparative reaction because it is significantly cheaper than D-glyceraldehyde.
40. 13CNMR spectroscopic data for KDG and KDGaI were identical to those reported in the literature : a) R. Plantier-Royon, F. Cardona, D. Anker, G. Condemine, W. Nasser, J. Robert-Baudouy, J. Carbohydr. Chem. 1991, 10, 787

43. The remaining mass balance from this separation was composed of a mixture of D-KDG and D-KDGaI that could be separated by further rounds of ion-exchange chromatography as required.
