The production of D-arabino-, D-lyxo-, and D-ribo-2-hexosuloses and D-threo-2-pentosulose from their respective aldoses was demonstrated with washed micelium suspensions of the basidiomycete Oudemansiella mucida.L-Sorbose was shown to be converted into D-threo-2,5-hexodiulose.The dicarbonyl sugars produced were isolated as their hydrazones, whose structures were inferred from spectroscopic evidence and the method of preparation.
