Acetic Acid → Lactic Acid

HRID 23860

Reaction equation

[OH:1][CH2:2][C:3]([C@H:5]([C@@H:7]([C@@H:9]([CH2:11][OH:12])[OH:10])[OH:8])[OH:6])=[O:4].C(O)(=[O:15])C>>[CH2:11]([OH:12])[C@H:9]([C@H:7]([C@@H:5]([C@@H:3]([CH2:2][OH:1])[OH:4])[OH:6])[OH:8])[OH:10].[C:11]([OH:12])(=[O:15])[CH:9]([CH3:7])[OH:10]

Participants

Reactant 2

HCID 176Acetic Acid

HCID 5984D-(-)-Fructose

Product 2

HCID 612Lactic Acid

HCID 6251Mannitol

Procedure

intermedius NRRL B-30560 was grown essentially as described in Example 2 in simplified MRS medium under anaerobic conditions using 2% fructose as the carbon source. The product patterns were analyzed by HPLC. The bacterium produced mannitol, lactic acid and acetic acid in product ratios similar to those obtained under aerobic conditions.
