This paper presents the chemoenzymatic synthesis of D-fructose analogues substituted at position C6. These compounds are the unique products of rabbit muscle aldolase catalyzed aldolisation of D-glyceraldehyde analogues (obtained by stereospecific chemical synthesis) with DHAP, followed by a dephosphorylation step with acid phosphatase.
