6-[(2,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydroxyheptyl)oxy]-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acyl glycosides of mono- and disaccharides. Fatty acyl glycosides of mono- and disaccharides are compounds composed of a mono- or disaccharide moiety linked to one hydroxyl group of a fatty alcohol or of a phosphorylated alcohol (phosphoprenols), a hydroxy fatty acid or to one carboxyl group of a fatty acid (ester linkage) or to an amino alcohol. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 6-[(2,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydroxyheptyl)oxy]-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid.
