More Information
Summary:The invention provides a method of preparing fructose from glucose using a calcium salt and an organic base. The invention further provides a method of preparing fructose from mannose using a calcium salt and an organic base. In certain embodiments, the method comprises contacting an aqueous solution of the sugar with a calcium salt and an organic base to form a system, wherein fructose is formed in the system. In other embodiments, the system is free of organic solvents. In yet other embodiments, the system comprises one or more water-soluble organic solvents.
