描述
β-d-xylopyranose, also known as β-D-xylose, is a member of the class of compounds known as pentoses. Pentoses are monosaccharides in which the carbohydrate moiety contains five carbon atoms. β-d-xylopyranose is very soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). β-d-xylopyranose can be found in a number of food items such as colorado pinyon, flaxseed, star anise, and dandelion, which makes β-d-xylopyranose a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
