It occurs in plants as a major product of photosynthesis. it is one of the stereoisomers of glucose, and is the one that is biologically active.
D-glucose formulaĭ-glucose basically means dextrorotatory (meaning that as an optical isomer when placed inside polarimeter that rotates the plane of polarized light to the right and also an origin for the D designation) glucose. Better to say, they are isomers to each other, or isomeric monosaccharides. And causes differences in molecules despite of sharing the same atoms in the same proportion. Though glucose and fructose have similar chemical formula, they differ from each other structurally and stereo chemically. Chemical formula or structural formula of glucose is C 6H 12O 6.chemical formula or structural formula of fructose is also C 6H 12O 6.
