Reaction Steps
The aerobic fermentation of D-glucose may be replaced by a modification consisting of passing by oxidation of D-glucose into D-gluconic acid which, in the calcium salt form, can be decarboxylated by the so-called RUFF method to give D-arabinose, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,755,294. The D-arabinose is then hydrogenated in manner known in itself to produce D-arabitol.
