- In
organic chemistry, a
lactol is a
functional group which is the
cyclic equivalent of a
hemiacetal (−CH(OH)O−) or a
hemiketal (>C(OH)O−). The compound...

compound can
exist in a
monocyclic aldehyde form or in a
bicyclic hemiacetal (
lactol) form. It is
unknown if
glucuronolactone is safe for
human consumption due...

Cyclic hemiacetals and
hemiketals are
sometimes called lactols. They
often form readily,
especially when they are 5- and 6-membered rings...
- of
strictosidine by
strictosidine β-deglucosidase (SGD)
produces a
lactol. The
lactol opens and
produces an aldehyde, then
condenses to form an iminium...
- the
lactol deoxydihydroartimisinin.
These results show that the
peroxy group ****ists the
reduction of
lactone with
sodium borohydride to a
lactol, but...

substituents can
react with each
other to form 3-hydroxyphthalide, a
cyclic lactol. This
lactol reacts readily with
Grignard reagents ,
forming alkyl- and aryl-substituted...

possible sugars via
Mukaiyama aldol addition followed by
