The efficient isomerization of l-rhamnose [the only cheaply available deoxy hexose] to 1-deoxy-l-psicose, 1-deoxy-d-psicose, 1-deoxy-l-fructose, 1-deoxy-d-fructose, 1-deoxy-l-tagatose, 6-deoxy-l-psicose, 6-deoxy-d-psicose, 6-deoxy-l-fructose, 6-deoxy-d-fructose, and 6-deoxy-l-tagatose is described. The conversion of rhamnose to ten of the sixteen 1- and 6-deoxyketohexoses is accomplished in water in three steps. The range of substrates for d-tagatose-3-epimerase (DTE) is extended to 1- and 6-deoxyketoses. An authentic sample of 6-deoxy-d-psicose is prepared from d-psicose.

A polyol, found in the cell-wall of Nocardia asteroides R 399 as a component of a neutral polysaccharide mainly composed of D-arabinose and D-galactose, was identified by mass spectrometry, paper chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and gas chromatography as 6-deoxy-D-altritol.
