SWEET TASTING PSEUDO-SUGARS

Abstract
Pseudo-Dl-glucose and pseudo-Dl-galactose, in which the ring-oxygens of pyranoid sugars have been replaced by a methylene group, are equally sweet as their respective true sugars. It has thus been demonstrated that the displacement of the ring-oxygen in a pyranoid sugar by the methylene group affords no prejudicial effect on the sweetness.
