D-Fructose-4,5-d2 is a deuterated form of the monosaccharide D-fructose, where the hydrogen atoms at positions 4 and 5 in the carbon chain are replaced with deuterium. This isotopic labeling is particularly useful in metabolic studies, allowing researchers to trace the metabolic pathways of fructose in biological systems with enhanced precision. The deuterium atoms make it more easily detectable in mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, without significantly altering the chemical properties of the sugar, making it a valuable tool in biochemical research.
