FIG. 6 depicts the reaction sequence of FIG. 4 when the D-glucuronic acid (30) compound (30) is a precursor material that is reduced (f2) to a L-gulonic acid (60). The L-gulonic acid (60) undergoes decarboxylation to produce a L-xylose (70) xylitol intermediate, which may be reduced (e2) to xylitol (50).
