A general term for sugar dicarboxylic acids obtained by oxidizing the terminal aldehyde group and primary alcohol group of aldose (monosaccharide with an aldehyde group) and converting both to carboxyl groups, and the oxidation is carried out with a strong oxidizing agent such as concentrated nitric acid. The sugar acid of glucose is also called glucaric acid or glucosaccharic acid, and is the most representative sugar acid, so this is what is usually meant when people simply say sugar acid. It is a white powdery crystal with a melting point of 125-126°C, absorbs water to become syrup-like, and easily forms lactone at room temperature. This lactone can be reduced to glucuronic acid. In addition, the sugar acid of galactose is called galactaric acid or galactosucrose acid, which has a melting point of 213°C and is difficult to dissolve in water.It is also called mucic acid and is used to confirm galactose.

アルドース(アルデヒド基をもつ単糖)の末端アルデヒド基と第一アルコール基を酸化し、ともにカルボキシ基(カルボキシル基)に変えることによって得られる糖ジカルボン酸の総称で、酸化は濃硝酸などの強い酸化剤で行われる。グルコースの糖酸をグルカル酸またはグルコ糖酸ともいい、もっとも代表的な糖酸であり、単に糖酸といえば普通これをさすことが多い。融点125~126℃の白色粉末状結晶で、水分を吸収してシロップ状となり、常温でラクトンをつくりやすい。このラクトンを還元するとグルクロン酸になる。 また、ガラクトースの糖酸はガラクタル酸またはガラクト糖酸といい、融点213℃で水に溶けにくく、粘液酸ともよばれ、ガラクトースの確認に用いられる。 [村松 喬] [参照項目] | |©Shogakukan"> D-糖酸の化学式 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
